Contact the factory. They'll most likely still have records of your car and should be able to offer advice on matching up a modern paint colour.

No i knew that,
as mine needs a complete respray.
but i just didnt know how many colours they produced in the first place.

Also if i have it sprayed in a non matching colour,ie not one of the original colours, will that affect the value,(never mind it would effect value)

anyway thanks for the reply, new to lotus ownership, so any advice is good ,

(white and marigold orginal colours for mine,but i do like this racing green, but i think this picture is bit lighter than racing green)
