Help with 1981 Mini colour
Discussion
A mate of mine (The Jensk - some of you will know him) has a 1981 Mini HL Estate in this colour.
He needs to know what the colour is called, as he needs to get some paint to do the new rear doors. We think it's Mace, but haven't found any piccies to confirm or disprove this.
Can anyone supply a picture of a car in Mace, or alternatively offer any suggestions as to what else the colour could be?

These might help.......

I thought Russet Brown was much darker than that - have just looked in a 1981 multi-model leyland brochure, and whilst it doesn't state the colour, there's a much darker brown Allegro, in the same colour i thought was Russet, and it is nothing like the above picture, even though it has obviously faded after 25yrs.
minicolours web site isn't particularly helpful as far as pictures go, but gives plenty of info on how to decipher the info from your vin number (should be on the v5 even if you don't have a plate)

failing that ask on a forum like minifinity.com , as there's plenty of knowledgeable people on there.
