S2 Paint Code

[Gerald-TVR]

The owners manual says Magenta (dark red) body code P422 PA51 can anyone tell me what paint to get please

I got mine from halfords made up - they have lots of TVR paint codes on their system.
I got the brush on touch up - 100ml for £7.95 and it matches perfectly (Cooper Green Metallic).

Hi Chris

It was in the paint codes on the computer but they said they couldnt make it up

Were they a colour short? They have to mix a concoction of various colours and quantities - if they haven't got one of them you're buggered.
On the other hand if Halfords have the paint codes I'm sure professional paint suppliers will have as well - might be worth a try.
Most TVR colours are mainstream car colours the problem is finding it - I know mine is a 90's Rover colour but not sure which one.

Nope just that that colour could not be supplied

Hi there
Your post was a loooong time ago but I have a 400SE with the same body code. Did you ever find a source for the paint? I've got the same problem!

Well it was a long time ago but I'm still about (but not running a TVR now). I got some made up by these people, and it was a perfect match but all I needed was to deal with some chips!
