Hello,

 

does anyone happen to know what color the Swiftune Madgwick car is?

I am getting ready to paint my mini this week and even thought I was planning on BU8 Island Blue, after sampling it I found it to be very dull and I think a car like the mini deserves a more exciting color!!

 

If anyone can pinpoint the Madgwick color (ideally the code as well) then that would be awesome!
 

Other suggestions of blue colors of similar shade are welcome as well!

 

Cheers,

Nik

Island Blue is a period colour similar - I don't think the mini pictured is correct shade for that

Thanks I have looked at Island Blue but it is very dull and pale compared to that. 
I was at the paintshop yesterday and when I showed the photo to the painter, he said it reminds him of a Mercedes Ponton Blue he did a few years ago.

 

Here's a link I found: url

 

I've asked him to make a sample so I will post up my impressions of it.
