Are there variants on the colour, as these two cars seem to be quite different...
Looks more yellowish, while...
Looks more cream.
I suppose it could be lighting consition or fading, but these two cars are a similar age, so that's not likely.
If they look the same to everyone else my apologies, I am 85% colourblind after all

I recently called up one of the leather restorer companies and when I mentioned that I had a Cerbera with magnolia leather I was told that TVR have had a lot of "discussions" with the various leather manufacturers and all magnolia leather is not equal. It depends on which supplier TVR had paid that month as to which colour magnolia each car had.
I personally know of three different magnolias in cars of a similar age, one whihc is very soft and creamy, one which is harder but closer to magnolia and one which is harder but more orange. All these cars are magnolia leather interiors.

Just checked my original car order form and it is in fact cream! When i bought it the guy advertised as magnolia, but he was clearly mistaken. At least now i know
Now I'm really confused. In the last few days I've seen standard 17" racelines advertised as 18", colours changed from Black to really-really-really dark Blue and now magnolia to cram - I don't think I can cope
Perhaps a drink will make me feel better.

Coming from the "S" world surely you should be used to this

Do TVR use different part numbers for the Magnolia ?
In the "owners records" page of the owners handbook mine says "trim colour magnolia, TVR code T412"
Anyone got a different code for Magnolia ?
Mine looks like the yellowy photo by the way
