Depends on which car. It seems he had at least three. Comparing the colour of the car (from pictures) and the 1975 BLMC paint chart, it seems closer to Citron, being yellowy green. Applejack being a bit too green. I could be wrong, but looking at pictures and the TV show, thats what it looks like to me.

Mr Beans Mini (complete with autographed sun visor) attended the L2B at Brighton, I might have some pictures / video somewhere if that helps?

Thats appalling! Yes theyve got to try a scrape an income somehow but charging fans when they would be paid from that job a fair sum anyway? Just wrong imo
Sorting out picture / video now (cant remember what its on hubby took it)

One of the cars was at the Goodwood Revival in 2009 for the Mini 50th celebrations, with Rowan Atkinson on top gurning away - lots of good daylight photos on flickr for instance... Citron does seem like a good shout.

Apparently more than one Min was used (one was crushed by a tank?), That's Citron above.
