I don`t know why but that colour was really popular in the early 80`s, and for some reason the cars always seemed to last quite well too!, i have noticed that with other beige cars, the only thing i can come up with, theory wise is that the beige has got quite a bit of white and red oxide in the mix...both very strong pigments, and therefore a good thick coating of paint

, still not as nice as Bronze Yellow Ray!!
