Well do you? I need a price and part number (if applicable) for some paint.

Sedona Red (Metallic). No more then 5 litres. Its the new 1 series coupe colour.

I do work for Bmw also..... however I'd recommend you go to your local ae motor colours or the likewise as the paint we use is hugely expensive! Your local paint supplier will probably be able to supply the same colour by a different manufacturer at half the cost! Nick.

I'm sure a paint supplier will be able to identify the paint code from the colour and year of production, although it may be different with brand new cars.

paint code is A76, but does not appear to be available yet as its not listed on EPC.
BMW paint is about ?90 a litre just for the base colour!!!
