Dark Grey/Dove Grey Paint Colour

Post by chris dancey » Mon Mar 27, 2017 7:23 pm

Help please. Does anyone have a paint colour code or description for 1950s/60s Rover Dark Grey. My P4 is two tone Dark / Dove Grey but I cannot find a colour code for the Dark Grey. Thanks

Hi Chris,

According to some information I've found here http://www.roverp4.com/paintschemes.htm, the P4 of 59/60 came in either Dove Grey over Smoke Grey or Light Grey over Dove Grey. Both Dove Grey and Smoke Grey seem to be quite dark colours and looking at a photo of your P4 it seems to be quite light coloured on the top half. Could it actually be Light Grey over Dove Grey?

The codes that I have found are:

Light Grey - GR1

Dove Grey - GR26

Smoke Grey - BU15

Regards

Joel
