The red leather, for me, is a bit too bright with the Sport White (Ivory). Saddle Brown (tan) or Mulberry seem to be the two best choices. Mulberry is a deep red or burgundy colour and it seems to go well with the Maroon mohair.
To me I find the Sand has a slight greenish tinge but, as you say would probably go well with Saddle Brown. It might go well with dark green upholstery and hood.
Unfortunately there is not really a brown mohair that seems to go well with the Saddle Brown upholstery but I am almost certain I saw a photo of an Ivory car with Saddle Brown and a dark green hood. That I thought looked very good.
Deciding is all part of the fun.

I am in agreement with you Peter. I really love my Ivory/Saddle colour combo, but your Ivory/Mulberry scheme is stunning also. I think the Sand is also a classy colour for a trad, but I personally feel it needs a bit of a colour contrast here and there to freshen the look a bit....just thinking about how it might look after living with it for a few years.

I've save a few of the pictures on here of the mulberry and tan interiors.... Golly, hard choice. Maybe the Mulberry does have a something....
More decisions!

Just to complicate matters further, sport white is also an ivory colour and not at all white. It's a bit paler than the standard ivory and easier to match with other colours.
I also agree with previous posts that sand looks a bit iffy in photos, but is really nice in real life.

More decisions! Mulberry trim suits Ivory, or Old English White, perfectly. I have it in my mind that my next Mog shall be that combination.

I also agree with previous posts that sand looks a bit iffy in photos, but is really nice in real life. Sport White (new name) and Sport Ivory (old name) are identical. I have compared the samples. I think the name may have changed when Morgan changed their paint system. Royal Ivory is another comon colour that is a little darker. Sand is another shade that is slightly darker than Ivory but with a greenish tinge, to my eye anyway. I agree the Sport White (Ivory) is probably one of the easiest colours to pair with other colours.
