Hey All

Can someone please confirm if the above colour - Nurburgring White was ever a mini colour?

If so has anybody got any mini photos they could post with this colour! and even better the paint code number?

Cheers

Hi

Don't know about that colour, but Nurburg White was definitely a Mini colour.

Try a look here http://www.elevenhundred.com/colours.php , it has codes.

Cheers
Steve

There was both Nurburg White and Norburg White. They were both used in 1963 and 64.
The Dulux number for Norburg is 05269 and the Dulux number for Nurburg is 02191.

Nurburg White was also called Heron White.

Nurburg is a nice colour, thats for sure, thought it may have more white init though!

Does anyone have photos of a 'snow white'/ 'crystal white' or 'toda white' mini?

Thanks again

My car is original Toga White - it a grey/white colour.
It seems like Nurburg and Norburg whites are cream/white.

My car looks white in the sun but grey at night. go figure..:wink:

Thanks again crew! dammm its hard to pick a colour
Was hoping to use an original mini colour, as new car colours are to new looking (understand?)
I do like the new Hondas white, its very white but clean and crisp, not sure if it will suit a mini!

It's hard to judge how a colour will look when you are looking at very old paint schemes on very old cars.

I've found that you will rarely be disapointed with a colour when it is straight out of the paint gun.
