Can anyone help with the paint code for this orange M3W?
The paint code on the plate under the bonnet reads M008 which is Sport Grey, not the orange the car is (originally) painted.
The orange can be seen underneath the plate in the photograph.

A few MMC paint codes here from the Chipex website, sadly not your Sport Orange though. As this colour wasn't available for long I guess they never got around to assigning one of their codes to it.

Another owner has kindly supplied a picture of their paint code which appears to be M0800 rather than M008 - Sport Orange.
As Richard has said this appears to have been a short lived colour - anyone have the industry standard paint code?

Any decent paint supplier, at least in the UK, can scan the colour and match it and tell you its origins.

For anyone who wants to know, Morgan paint shop came back with the following:-

“The morgan paint code for Sport Orange is M0800 which cross refences to Fiat Arancio Narciso paint code 519/A.”
