Please, can someone tell me the colour and the paint code.

it's like a purple/blue flip.

Would be very much appreciated.

Anyone got any more pictures of this colour in the daylight?

There are a few purpley colours about, but that looks a bit like Rolex Blue.

Difficult to tell from a photo 'cos different cameras and monitors and lights and all that.....

When was the photo taken? If it was in April then it might be my car at Racing Green. In that case it's not a reflex/flip, it's Montreal Blue pearlescent.

I got it from

www.tvrcc-surrey.co.uk/

under the gallery section.

here are a few more pics.





If you think your car is the same colour please please post up some more pics. I'm trying to pic a colour for the car and it's soo damn difficult.

thanks in advance.

Edited, cause I just looked in your profile at the pics of your car.

I think I've found the colour I'm after.

Holy hell that's gorgeous.

So it's Rolex Blue? Do you know the paint code please.

A good idea if you're struggling on the colour is to go to the Racing Green open day on October 17th as there will be plenty of cars to look at.

If you're in the area (Bracknell) at the weekend or next week, you're welcome to see mine in the flesh. In any case, I'll put some pics up somewhere and post a link later.

im not sure but it could be the halcyon space blue. There is a T350 at Castles in Stansted that looks the same. not quite as "purple" as the rolex that has been mentioned..

Saw that T350 when i was down there on Thursday, the picture really does not do it justice, its a much more deeper and startling purple, superb colour i think

Looks a little like mine which is Yamaha R1 Blue. Very hard to tell because of the lighting. If anything that is a little darker than mine.

it's not rolex blue (which isn't blue at all but purple).

difficult to tell colour as all your pictures are from the same angle.

mine is lotus azure blue which is quite similar (see my profile)

thanks everyone for all your help, brilliant stuff.

After serious consideration, Rolex Blue Pearl it is.

Stunning colour, in the sunlight it's like a really deap purple from some angles and almost blue from others.

Does anyone know who I can phone e.g. dealer/factory to find out the precise paintcode colour.

Your local dealer should be able to help.
