I have recently purchased a 1969 Mini K, and am trying to find a paint code name and code. It is officially white on the rego papers, but is a 'Bone' colour. Is anyone able to help. Thanks

A 69 K in white? If originally white it would be Crystal White.

My 70 K was Crystal White, and there was only one white for that model.

Our old '69 K (no longer with us) was Toga White.

Hmmm... I wonder if they changed to Crystal White in 1970 then?

According to Dulux...
Toga White 65/66
Snow White 67/68
Crystal White 69/78

I am sure that there would have been some sort of overlap period, I doubt that the colours followed the calender exactly.

Wow!! My old Citroen Xsara was blue too!! :lol:

In the original post, the colour was refered to as a 'bone' colour.
That sounds much more like Toga white than either Crystal or Snow white. . .

Is a possibility too , does the original colour you described as bone have a yellowish/green tinge to it as well ?
