What colour is Cadiz?

An article on Export Mokes in TME states that Cadiz is a light brown but I've also heard that it's a Leyland GT orange.

Under the paint sticker on my moke it's orange but the sticker could have been reapplied after the new paint job I suppose.

Not that I care either way, just interested to know if it has the original colour scheme or not. :wink:

That GT at last year's Muster is Dad's old GT. That colour is NOT cadiz. Dad sold the car to Bob Ward he painted it a more brown shade of the original cadiz. The Fetts own this car now.
