Very pretty.
I love that wooden 'sidscreen' treatment. Would be amazing to fabricate something similar with (chromed?) sidescreen mounting brackets for standard cars.

Like on my TVR3000S (the car emigrated to a new owner in Belgium several years ago). ![[Linked Image]](https://i.ibb.co/vv6QBxxs/3000-S-at-Cranborne-sidescreens-1-21-8-05.jpg)

I agree with you Mart on both counts - nice to see non stockcars around they enhance the visual aspects of Morgan ownership.
That colour is alive.

I like the red Midsummer, the only example that was ordered in red! My own Morgans are more "traditional" in color, the 4/4 in Royal Ivory and the PlusFour in Bentley Midnight Emerald Dark Green. For my daily driver I recently ordered a new BMW iX3, MSport pro, yet to be delivered, will take still several months. I first ordered it in Ocean Wave Blue, but later switched to Fire Red, which was fist not an option. I like to drive somewhat different from the grey, silver or black army of often company cars. I only once saw the car during a preview in a darker silver-grey color, haven't seen them yet in their colors in the flesh. Maybe you don't like the car (EV>>>!!  ) at all, but what should you choose?  1. Fire Red 2. Ocean Wave Blue ![[Linked Image]](https://i.ibb.co/5X6sKgdK/IMG-7689.png) url=https://ibb.co/S4hMnfWf] ![[Linked Image]](https://i.ibb.co/FLSywHNH/Ocean-Blue.png) [/url]

Fire red every time.
I quite like Morgan Furka Rouge metallic.
I do have a bias though. In y motoring time, I have owned (or had as a company car in one instance) a few blue cars: Triumph Spitfire Mk3 - rear ended at M1 J23 by my quantum mechanics lecturer whilst I was a student & written off Ford Orion 1.6D - clobbered by corrugated roof sheets on a windy day when parked at the stable yard by Mrs F. Mercedes C200 Elegance - driven into on our drive by Mrs F.
I think I am perhaps best if I steer clear of owning a blue car ever again.

It might be to do with the red/blue perception. Red with black is high on my list, as is orange and yellow.
Black works apart from showing dust, but small cars really should be bright colours. Having said that an old bloke almost hit the side of our lime green Polo. He was pulling out regardless.
Grey and blue and most metallics are just not for me.

Hate to be a practical party pooper on the Midsummer front, but what happens in the real world when it rains? ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2026/01/10/IMG_3123.jpeg)

Don't look much like Lapis Blue to me...
She has far too higher screen - I think it must be the Midwinter launch edition.
