This is not in relation to my e-mailed pics yesterday to TVRCC Bucks is it?

I am pretty sure that Grigio Alloy Pearl is silver/light blue which is also borne out by the following link - www.jamesagger.com/used_cars/stocklistgallery.asp?id=359.
Grigio Titanio Silver does not, if memory serves, have any blue in it and is more a silver/grey mix.

i think Cascade indigo and cascade violet are the same. TVR probably changed the name of it. Halcyon Midas and Midas gold are the same. Midas gold is a nickname owners of tivs in that colour call it.

Thanks for the feedback so far!

Is this colour also known as Custard Yellow? I've seen it listed that way on some site...

could be. Halcyon Midas is pearlescent but i think it looks more like butter than custard though! could just be someones own nickname for it.
i think custard would be a good way to describe the sunset pearl/Macau yellow colours TVR do though!

Custard Yellow is how Tipler dscribed the (Halcyon) Midas Gold Sagaris of Yellow Peril. She wasn't impressed, and now has a new nickname - Rhubarb!

It's not a proper colour name.

Does anyone know the difference between Mystic black and Moonraker black?

[lundinoir]

From what I've seen Mystic Black Pearlescent has a ultra-fine silver metallic flake and a pearl coat.

Moonraker Black has a noticeably larger metallic flake and is more similar to a Starmist colour.

Ta.

Not sure I've seen Moonraker in the flesh but it always looks pretty similar in pics.

Mystic is a deeper black, but I agree that they look very similar in photos.
