Halfords do touch up kits for some rover/austin colours (i bought a flame red one), so you could try there.
If not i'm positive that a spray shop would be able to sort you out with something

Your local Focus type shop should sort you an exact match out but u have to watch out as the colour will be slightly different as your cars paint will have dated

Halford can mix u up a can of car spray paint
if u find out the paint code thats on the chassis plate and name of colour youre after and tell them at the paint desk
they can mix up a can of your chosen colour
try minicolours.co.uk to find/cheack the paint code
if u cant find it on the plate

If all else fails then phone British Motor Heritage Archive department.
Tel: 01926 645 076
Did this for the Clubman paint code and got it from them over the phone, no charge

I knew a girl that tried to spray her wing mirrors on her punto. She had the paint code, bought the paint from halfords and the final colour was really noticably different from the rest of the car.
Something to consider :erm:

Colours can fade and discolour with age, the only way to get a decent match would be to go to a paintshop with your car and get them to mix it up for you.
