Hiya Folks. I have been wondering for a while now what shade of blue Molly is and I'm not sure how to find out either so can anyone tell what blue she is or how I can find out. Here's Molly so you can have a good look  Any help would be greatly appreciated Minisniper |

i dont know my friend but i just wanted to say Molly is a BEAUTIFUL color. Paint codes are normally etched onto the engine bay in normal cars. Its a shame that probably does not apply to minis eh?

Thanks for the reply Nile and the compliments I'll be sure to tell her in the morning. I will have a nosey in my engine bay tomorrow to see if I can find anything.

If you pop down to Autopaint in Hadley they will match it for you and should be able to make you a rattle can up as well!!

You won't find anything to help in the engine bay I'm afraid - Austin-Rover decided not to be helpful there. Given that it's a Mayfair, and knowing the years those were made (and that I once had a Metro that colour), and cross-referencing www.minicolours.co.uk and my list of A-R paint codes, I'd suggest Lipari Blue (JPE or BLVC666) is most likely. |

Hiya asahartz
Thank you for taking the trouble to reply to me I think you're right about Molly's colour I've looked it up and it's as close as it can be.

Ive had a little looky also and i think its Lipari Blue  Some paint factors can tell you the correct colour just from your registration if its the original colour  Check out the plate vin plate,on Molly it should be on the left hand inner wing just by the bonnet prop stay bracket The codes are generally three letters as asahartz said if its Lipari Blue it should be JPE ;D Huggz Jodie |
