Isn't there an earlier version too for the Mk1 Gl's and Gls's, or is that the same as the '82-'84 colour?

Right, so what we're saying is that there's a silver-green metallic for the Mk1 and 2 (similar to the 200 and 700 silver green), then a different light green metallic for the early Mk3's and a different shade again for the late Mk3's?

Until of course, you have to go & buy some touch-up paint. And I need LOTS of touch-up paint.

BTW, what's "snowy-coloured"?
