i asked about this some time ago - but with the new web site cannot seem to find the responses I got.
I am about to repaint my Dart - and wonder if anyone has the colour code for Royal Red - thanks for anyone's response.

Re: royal red - colour code
Seems like the name "royal red" is applied to more than just one code. Here's a link that might be helpful:

Re: royal red - colour code
That is a US colour code, try looking up Burgundy in UK sites I' not sure if the original was metallic or flat, metallic really looks great on an SP

Re: royal red - colour code
Never came across 'Royal red'. but 'regency red' is a common jaguar/daimler colour form the 1960's and most specialist paint suppliers should have the mixing formula/code. the description was later changed to 'regency maroon', although its clearly closer to 'red' than any 'maroon' which is considered a far darker colour. My ex NL market car was originally regency red.. but I changed it to black over dark maroon during the restoration and am very pleased with the result..

Re: royal red - colour code
Thanks Brooksy (and Laurence)- I think that was the post to my earlier request I couldn't find on the old forum.
