I'm trying to get some touchup paint for my 350SE, which I was told was Monza red. The paint code under the bonnet is apparently the ICI code for Artic white!

Can anyone tell me what the correct code is?

Can't help with the red code but I would be interested in the Artic white code because my Artic white 400 has the ICI code for TVR Black!

The code I found on mine is P420 KV52 searched the web pages and found a link to nexus i think that was the company, searched there and came up with Monza Red. From what I can recall it was an old Rover colour think you can get a touch up pen at Halfrauds. Hopefully someone can confirm this.

It is just under the VIN and engine number under the bonnet.

Got my Mica Blue ICI paint from my local motor factors who are Nexia/ ICI paint distributors. Got a pen, spray and small paint pot from them for about £15 the lot. Perfect match.

Tried Halfrauds and they were a waste of time. The paint code i had had been out of production for quite a number of years and wasn't listed.

The nexia site will give you the formula as well, just take it into any Nexia distributor to mix up.
