Deep Purple...

Post by Z3Jeremy »

Hello Folks, Does anyone know the correct name of the very dark metallic purple paint colour that a few Z3,s were finished in ? Ive only ever seen one in the flesh and one for sale a couple of years ago which paintwise looked fantastic, - am considering a new zed in this colour. Thankyou, Jeremy.

Yup! It is Mora Red paint code 359.
It was applied to the Mora individual with matching piping on cream seats and a few other extras over the standard spec. I have only ever seen it with the 2.0 engine which is unfortunate unless someone knows different.
I have a Mora Z3 but you do not see many in that colour. I looked for ages as I did not want silver or black and swmbo would not let me have the Fuji Green 2.8 that I had already HPI checked as she says it is British Racing Turquiose!

yep thats what i was thinking, however the model with cream leather and purple piping maybe a bit more "Liberace" than "ian Gillan"! or whoever the hairy leadsinger was in DP...
