Great to see the Ultimas as well as so many other awesome cars today! If the owner of the orange/red Ultima in the paddock sheds sees this I would love to know the paint code and or name of the colour - or maybe it is gel coat? I am about to paint my new rally car and the colour of your car is exactly what I'm after. Thanks smile

PS good to catch up with Steve_D again too!

Had a look myself and am pretty sure it is not Factory gel red.
It was in a paddock shed next bay down from mine.

Just realised it's Paul's.

yep... that's mine... factory red, although I do recall the factory mentioning when I bought mine that they were putting more/different pigment in compare to previous... mind you, it's probably due to it just looking bright due to me wiping all the crud off after 200 miles, and it only being 5 weeks old.

Awesome morning... some very tasty kit at goodwood! One of my highlights was the drive in at 7am... last 30 miles nailing it on empty roads following a tasty Testarossa being driven how it should be!

Cheers
Paul

The Factory may be able to supply a RAL number for the colour but in the past they refused to give me a the code for my yellow body.

Failing that I'm sure Paul will have some GF offcuts under his bench which you could take to a paint mixer and get a match.
