Botticelli Blue paint code

Post by ajm541s »

I am aware that this is a frequently asked question, but does anybody know the correct code for Botticelli Blue? This colour was used from early 541s through to CV8s, but finding the paint code numbers is proving very difficult. Botticelli Blue is a light blue metallic, by the way!
If you have recently had your car repainted this colour, or maybe you have the number tucked in the car history file, could you reply to this, please?
Thanks,

Bott. blue

Well now Tony, I have considered painting my 541 this colour and even had a sample done. According to the chassis data book my car is supposed to wear Botticelli Blue but I could not find a trace of it on the car. I did find dark blue on the inside of the doors and such.
Bott.blue is not my kind of colour, it's not 'strong' enough for me.
Anyway the code is: M049 2309 (ICI manufacture = now PPG)

As you know I had mine painted MG Lord Blue recently.
