Paint codes

[ian-raw]

I have only had the car 6 weeks and need a little advice on finding the paint code of the colour as I have had a chipsaway guy round to see about touching in the only mark on the bonnet, unfortunatly the colour seems not to be a standard colour. So where would the best place to find the code / formula for the colour? is there any where on the car the code is recorded or will I have to find the origional dealer to ask them?

Thanks for the help.

Paint code is on the plate under the bonnet...marked as "Body Code".
There are two 'types' of paint used by TVR...one is a 'standard' ICI mix available from a good bodyshop, the other is a factory mix at "Premium Prices" IIRC if your number starts with an 'R' then its a factory mix!
