My apologies if this has been posted before:

Has anyone been watching 'The Bridge' on BBC4? I put it on my SKY+ and watched 4 episodes yesterday.

The lead female drives what I think is an SC, in a sort of Dijon mustard colour.

Does anyone know what the colour is called? (or anything more about the car in question)

Thanks.

That's it.

Not sure that it's pea green. Looks more brown/yellow, hence my Dijon mustard analogy.

I really like it - it's a colour you wouldn't think of ordering, but on a 70s car it looks great.

My missus likes both the show and the car!

Not quite: I'm presuming MGRON is the colour in Swedish - I'd still like to know what it is in English!

I only started the thread to find out the colour - I liked the level of 'anorak' it provoked - did not think it'd make The Guardian. If I suggest she's going to put 3 Romanians in it and drive to the UK I might get into the Daily Mail and the Daily Express!

Ive just started watching this and the engine is definitely a flat four.

Its a 912E, it must be.

Brilliant! After 22 months an answer to my original question: Hunter Green.

Gotta love PH - I started this thread almost 5 years ago - the registration document says 1977 911S and Porsche Origin say it's a 1977 911S in Jäger Grun or Hunter Green and we still have people resurrecting the topic to say it's an Olive Green 912 . . .
