I had a 1986 SR on a C plate, it was painted in a grey colour that i've never seen before or since, can anyone identify what the paint is, maybe someone has a 1986 Nova brochure its mentioned in.

Here is a pic to ilustrate.

Any help would be appreciated.

No idea I sold it in 1991. I seem to remember getting some work done on the anit perforation warrenty and its was anthracite or some thing similar. It wasn't black, the log book said grey.

I've been thinking about this, I think the colour was the same as the 14 steels from the Mk2 SR.

Does you're brochure contain the 1985/86 1300 SR colours?

Does it give this colour in the chart of available colours and if so what is its name?
