Tan Interior - What body Colours?

Post by haynes »

I have a 1965 Morris in Maroon with Tan Interior. Curious to know what other (factory standard) body colours would have been matched with this interior, cant believe it was unique to Maroon?

Does anyone know what years the Maroon was available?

Maroon B was first used on Minis in late 1964, and deleted in early 1968. It is quoted on the first Mk2 colour cards.

The Satin Beige trim (as Tan was named) was only available on Maroon Mk1 cars. However it was fitted to El Paso, Almond Green and Maroon Mk2 cars.

Check out the paint card section on the main site for more info.
