Hi was hoping someone may be able to help me with the correct paint codes for a 94 mini Cooper Monte Carlo. The body plate says RDV.
I know this is flame red with white diamond.

Is the flame red COF (blvc818) or CPQ (blvc1000)?

Is it white diamond or white diamond 2? (NAL, NMN)

I have seen a few sites saying various combos. Any help would be much appreciated

Cheers

This may be of some help.

I use the Rimmer Bros site & that also states COF & NAL.

(Cal, i don't think it's important in this instance but in future posts don't forget to mention you have the LE Monte Carlo - it might not be just the carpet colours that are different between the two models).

Thanks guys! Appreciate the help.
@itsaminithing you're right I always forget about the monte Carlos they made before the LE ones

On this link they claim COF with NMN

That's because it's a list of Rover codes & not Mini specific.

Rover had an annoying habit of re-using code letters & paint names for different makes & models -i remember someone who had a body-shop order some paint only to find the completed car was the wrong colour.... they had used the Rover details but ordered it from the MG range of colours & not the Mini!
