Very nice, a few years ago we were at MMC and something very similar was in the PDI bay, I was quite taken with the colour and rare brown hood, when I asked the lads they said it was a VW colour

Yes it does look like a relative of Tarka. Peter that would be strong DNA.

I know of one trad Morgan finished in the same shade of bronze.
Tarka is supposed to be a Rolls Royce colour, but when the body shop scanned the car the computer offered two paints, one is the RR colour and the other was a VW one.
BUT the mix components for the RR colour had more content than the VW, and it is my feeling that the RR paint has more "depth".

No longer driving Tarka, the 2014 Plus 8...

It was a browny bronze Tom, I have a picture somewhere I'll have a dig around for it. Here we go, a lot more in keeping with the time of production than a metallic.. Proper bumpers and smaller sidelights as well, the devil is in the detail  . ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/08/09/jane2.jpg) It might be hard to find if you parked by a muddy field

![[Linked Image]](https://images.honestjohn.co.uk/imagecache/file/crop/1200x800/media/10825188/01~Ford~Granada~MkI.jpg) This is the only car that colour ever looked good on. Ford Roman Bronze, my friend had a Capri Ghia with a beige vinyl roof, how fashions change! It was a browny bronze Tom, I have a picture somewhere I'll have a dig around for it. Here we go, a lot more in keeping with the time of production than a metallic.. Proper bumpers and smaller sidelights as well, the devil is in the detail . British Leyland Russet Brown circa 1978/9 I think. I recall a few Triumph Stags and MGs in that colour!

I had a brown marina which seemed most appropriate
