My local carpainter can not find the color code for my 4/4 from 2006. In the handbook it's called Jensen Imperial Crimson 0193 (darkred). Any idea were to look?

Does he have a paint reader? A kind of scanner that can identify the paint code and mix formula? Even years ago most paint mixing schemes had colour cards that could be used....there are paint experts on here that will answer your question for sure and they will be along soon.
Long time since I was in Jonkoping ;-)...I spent one week a month in Torslanda, Gothenburg for 14 years ;-)

It's a 1955 Jensen 541R standard colour, apparently.

Thanks Dave, I'll have my painter to look in this direction. An yes Colin, he has a reader but only gets a 93% hit and he wants a bit more before starting the "mixer".
Can't say it's MOG weather in Jonkoping at the moment, the🌡is showing minus 13.

May I also ASK for a color code.
Modelyear 2002 gunmetal grey.
I have asked at both Mercedes and Jaguar dealers, but none of them could help. Any ideas what color from which OEM it is?
Best regards from Austria

Not sure about Merc, but
Jaguar 61-66 Gunmetal Grey
try J1052, bare in mind MMC use PPG Paint which produce their own codes, then MMC produce a specific Morgan code on top of that.

I may have to go dig up the paint color books. Over the decades we have accumulated enough swatch books, color chips and color code catalogs to take up two bookcases. With more stacked on top!
