My son's 74 850 needs some paintwork touching up, but we can't track down which particular white it is. There doesn't seem to be a paint code anywhere on the body. Any ideas on how to pin this down?

They either had stickers on the body or the name on the ID plate.
Is it a creamy white or a bright white
maybe Snow white?

All stickers seem to have gone. It's not a pure white, but only very slightly creamy. It could possibly be Snowberry. We may have to do some test patches.

Cheers! They seem to have a few gaps in photos of their "White" listing...

Hi, I have looked up my paint list and for Mini from 1969 onwards, the only white listed is "Triumph White" (BLVC206) NAB. This colour is listed for 850 Deluxe, 1275GT, Clubman Estate and 1100 Special. Hope this info is of some use to you.

Thanks, Keith, This car's not a deluxe (no opening rear windows, round speedo), but it's certainly worth checking out a sample of NAB. Paul

A few years back I owned a '72 mini 1000 super deluxe that was glacier white. Definately no hint of cream in it though.

Should be Leyland White.
