Had a look on Steve's site and the charts don't list names and codes? Just a colour chip...

Colours I can think of off the top of my head are:

114/82 Steel Grey
200/80L Black
256/90L Starmist Black Metallic
266/81L Diamond Black Metallic
257/12 Laser Blue Metallic
264/15L Porto/Breeze Blue
272/17 Miami Blue
21F/4JU China Blue
265/19L Silk Violet Metallic
452/11L Polar White
474/10L Glacier/Casablanca White
475/56 Mustard Yellow
562/59 Jamaica Yellow
434/64L Brazilian (Burgo) Brown
489/68L Champagne Metallic
428/51L Gazelle Beige
539/71 Mexico Red
547/79 Magma/Flame Red
567/68L Toscana Red
540/75L Calypso Red Metallic
535/76 Carmine Red
344/43L Leaf Green

Not sure if these were used on Novas too:
253/18 Nordic Blue
480/60 Chestnut Brown Metallic

There's a dark green colour as well which I've only seen a couple of times - I think its a British Racing Green (which is used by Opel), but can't say for sure. There's probably a load more as well...

Yes mate, with green carpets, bus sized steering wheel etc.

It ended up with a grey mk1 dash & 6 clock SR dials, Astra GTE leather steering wheel, grey carpets & Brown SR checquered seats & 1 off custom door cards & speaker builds. lol

No Nova colours were rare, other than for the only reason that not many people chose them at the stage of ordering.

Thus making them unpopular, not rare. :D

I guess you could say that yours is uncommon in that case.

Unless it was an expensive option or a limited run... then it's not going to be very rare.

My XR2 was black as a ?800 option, but theres still plenty of them !
