I don't know John - what were the monogram and personalised schemes?

This car looks like a bog standard "I'll have one of those" from the ordinary catalogue.

Thanks Simon..
You are right,, if your paint code is MUM then Zircon Silver it must be.
This is the second time I have made a mistake with Cowley and Longbridge colours.
One of our members was at the Haynes meet SJTaylor1999 he has a Arden Green 75 with painted sills most likely built at Longbridge.
It shows that the Cowley paint colours were used at Longbridge.
I wonder if any Atlantic Blue 75.s were built at Longbridge..
As for Monogram.. I have a 2002 brochure No. 5890 but it does not show Zircon Silver.

Dave - I think the colour system was designed to confuse the hell out of everybody concerned!

Tell me about it.

If you look (if you have access to) the Monogram CD you would be surprised what you can do with extras, mix & Match, Silver/Blue Duo Tone Paintwork with Deep Sea Green Leather, roof mounted DVD Screens etc.

How did it all go so wrong? (Yes I know, but sad & stupid).
