I'm looking for photos of green minis, not British racing or kermit green, but something
more along the lines of 'porcelain green' (as seen in sports850s colour chart in the
'Viareggio Blue' thread.

I know some time ago I saw a pic of a car like what I'm looking for, but can't find it now.
From memory it was Aarons and it had white wall tyres on it?

Anyone help me out here?

Thanks.
:D :D

Saxon green was also used on 997 coopers, as the Roof colour when 'Osmond Green' was the body colour.
