Not sure, but I don't think it is BL colour, it was painted before Andy bought it. I have asked him what the colour is, but I don't think it is Rhiengold.

Could it be Brazil Metallic? When I was looking for a TC, about 22 years ago, I looked at one in Chelmsford, Essex. A similar colour on an 'N' plate. Frank told me about it at the time and said it was Brazil Metallic.

Andy replied as follows, "According to the can of paint that came with car its Amazon Green. Looks dark brown in ordinary light but in bright sun you can see the green + its metallic too
Hope this helps".

Help,

I thought that this was covered off, but Practical Classics want a saloon rather than a Coupe, so either a 4 door Mk1 TC or Mk2 HL. Can anyone help please, if you know someone that I don't, can you please ask them direct and get back to me.

I spoke to Steve Moss this evening and he has offered hi Mk2 HL 4 door. I have asked him for a pic as I have never seen it.

If anyone has a good pic from say the Isle of White this year, can they post it here for me?

Thanks once again for your help.
