My wife was going to maybe pick out a few things for the MG for Christmas when she gave me a very good question. In looking for interior parts for my 80 MGB, she came across the following variations

"Ochre" was available only for '73 (I think), and is a lighter, yellower shade of beige than some of the others. I'm fairly sure those are all genuinely different shades, although for any given year

They are different colors. If I had to guess. I'd bet the 80 originally came with the Autumn Leaf (darker brown) and black combination. _______________________________________________ Edit your repli

I'm pretty sure that in 1980, it was called Beige (from 1978-1980, at least in my books). --Steve (1980 MGB, with "beige" interior) ... Tan, Ochre, Beige, Champaign, Autumn Leaf, Light Brown.... Thi

There are some different colours there as well as possibly different names for the same colour. 'Ochre' is an official trim colour, yellow with a touch of brown. Ditto 'Beige' which would be a very p

It's not quite as complicated as it appears. This information is correct for the later 1970 onwards trim kits. Triumph and MG used different names for the same color. "Beige" (TR) and "Champagne" (M

I'm a firm believer in sticking with original, unless you have a good reason not to. Personal taste is a splendid reason. Kelvin Dodd _______________________________________________ Edit your replie

Paul Hunt politely pointed out that the both the factory parts books and Clausager refer to the late model MGB interior color as "Beige", not "Champagne". This is correct, and I was incorrect in stat
