[TR] Paint color discussion

[Triumph]

I found the paint color discussion interesting in that I painted my 59 TR3A Cotswold Blue in 2001. My local auto paint store had a 59 Triumph color code sheet in one of their books and they scanned it to mix up my paint. I saw a picture of a Jag XK150 on a magazine cover a while back and it said it was Cotswold Blue and it looked very close to my color. I attached 3 other XK150 pictures and they all show colors close to mine. I just Googled “cotswold blue xk150” to find these. Actually, when I type “cotswold blue tr3a” into Google, the first picture I see is my TR3A with the white top on it. While I think the blue in the car ad Randall posted is attractive, I am not sure where they are getting Cotswold Blue from that.
