Proud new owner of a beautiful Chim. I need some touch up paint. The owners manual says it is Starmist Green with paint code P183. According to The Bible there should be another 4 digits or so for the full colour code. Any ideas and where can I get a small pot from?

I just bought some touch-up from TVRbodyshop in Bristol. They are very helpful - patient with me when I didn't have the code and supply a decent amount of touch-up for £12.99 inc.
I would highly recommend them.
They can be contacted on:
