I will soon be getting my car sprayed however I have run into a problem. I have seen the colour I really really want which is Rover Tahiti Blue however, all the Rover Tahiti Blue versions I have seen in the shops are a sort of really dark navy blue version. The one I was after is blue but has a purpley tone to it which is used on the cover car in the August 2008 edition of Mini World as well as the mini used in the magazine to advertise Meguiar's products. Is there anyone who might possibly know the paintcode for this purpley Rover Tahiti Blue???? Answers on a postcard to an eternally grateful me!

So is that the colour coded by panelbeaterpeter as that looks miles apart from the one in the mag that I saw. It's quite a dark blue but purpley whereas that appears more turquoisey then purpley 
eeeeek I'm confused

Yes yes yes that's the colour I'm after ... so which is the code for that one then? Is it that Tahiti Blue JMP (BLVC65) on the mag advert?

If that clubby estate is JMP, the minicolours website is wrong! That sportspack in the pic looks more like amaranth pearl to me, KMN.

Yeah it does look more purpley but in the mag that that mini was actually in it was coded as Tahiti Blue but I can't seem to find a match to it so maybe they got it wrong I'm not sure. Really stuck.

There's a mini in the mag and that seems purpley and that's down as Rover 2 pack Tahiti Blue so there must be a version of Tahiti blue somewhere of that tone as its used quite a lot in the mag. Feel a bit wrong that I'm being so fussy about the colour I want lol
