Just love this! Anyone want to have a crack at what colour this might be... Roof and body colour?

I know its probably photo shopped but is it close to an original colour that I can work with to try and match?

cheers

Smoke Grey is in fact a UK colour. It's BU15 in the old language.

And is more of a duck egg blue.... Its the second rarest colour used on the S... (because it was so unpopular BMC swapped it pretty quickly for Tweed grey...).
