mk1a colours

[mr2hants]

Hi
Can anybody tell me if this is a standard colour.

It is coming up on the dvla as black.





I know they is a sherwood two tone but I have never seen a black and cream one.

Can anybody help please.

Thanks
paul

I am confused? The photo you have posted is of a Sherwood Toning.

According to the dvla it is black.

I am possibly buying the car and the owner is adamant it is a special edition black over gold.

I always thought Sherwood was green over gold.

Was black/gold an original colour?

Looks like sherwood toning to me, will probably turn out to be a very dark green rather than black on closer inspection.

It is green not black.. are you buying it from a blind man?!

I assume it is because I am familiar with the colour scheme though..
