Elma fud Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Valencia blue was common colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanM Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 probably Royal blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paudman Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Triumph certainly had a Royal Blue, a nice dark blue. Valencia is more of a mid-blue; sometimes looking even greeny-blue. Paint code for your car should be 56. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyf Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 This is my recently sold Royal Blue Vitesse :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSter Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 think its royal blue here is a picture of It all be it a bit dusty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyf Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Yes that certainly looks like Royal Blue to me.If you still have the Commision Plate fitted on the nearside front bulkhead it will have the Paint code number 56 stamped on it and also the Trim number too, 11 for black, 12 for Tan (I think?) etc, your code should be 27 for Shadow Blue by the looks of the Back Seat?

MSter Posted May 13, 2015 Author Share Posted May 13, 2015 Is there a similar colour to royal blue in a modern vehicle that anyone could recommend halfords want £15 a tin to make up a 300ml happy to spray whole car in modern day blue if it's near enough tot the original colour any suggestions??

marktheherald Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 I found Rover Nightwatch Blue to be close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPearce Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 If you're thinking of painting more than just a bit of touch-up, try AutoPaints in Brighton (they do mail order) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
