I could do it by doing what Outboarder said and then colouring all the media items myself, then moving any but that seems like a long winded way of doing it plus, any new items will stay grey until i manually colour them rather than changing to the same as the track colour like they do now.

As the naming in the Custom Colors section suggests (see Outboarders' screenshot), the options in the first row are for tinting the waveform peaks (or MIDI notes) and the options in the second row are for tinting the background of an item.
So in the second row
Tint media item background to, enabling the option
[Item color] (and in case you want to keep individual colors of Takes, enabling
[Take color], as well) should keep the Item background colors when moving Items to a different Track.
With the Tint [Track color] options disabled, you'll have to manually color new Items once. But if you're looking for a faster way to do this, you can use, for instance, Color Toolbars or Action Shortcuts ...
