No neither have I! That's the code in my handbook and it's supposed to be the same paint as the code on the plate (PA14B).

Also I have been told that there are 3 shades of that paint code. I bought a little touch-up bottle from Webbs but it's a bit too light.

I've had other priorities but I'm going to ask for help from the garage for my other car, the Lexus (Toyota paints too, see?)

Try Halfords they can do full mixing for most paints as a touch up spray and I think they can do a touch up brush. You will need the original paint code or the TVR code ref which may give the PPG code.

If you go on general gassing and send a PM to Gerbil who was the paint guru at the factory he will most likely be able to help you out.

I got touch up made up at Halfords, they have TVR colours listed too.
I think it was £7.95, but you do get 100ml which I thought was good value.
Matches well too (cooper Green Metallic).
