Not exactly a minter. Look at the panel gaps of the boot lid, the trim line under the headlights is not painted, signs of respray on the front left inner wheel arch etc etc..

The colour looks a bit like that tango metallic on modern Fords (Mk2 Focus, etc)

there are 2 different shades of magenta colour

the normal turdy brown colour , and ive seen a few a colour that is halfway between magenta and novuea red ,and have been original not re-painted (inc fords orange peel finish)
also know someone who owns this colour too and thats a magenta (early2wd), but looks like a novuea 4by4 colour
(noveua is a late 4by4 colour)
will get some pics later !!



edit"Ł$%^%^ didnt even look at advert at first ,but must say think that batch of colour is miles off ....... paint obviously mixed by stevie wonder tripping ffs!!!
not even close to magenta or novuea or the inbetween colour i mentioned )

looks pants personally may aswell paint it pink to make the boys wink lmao !!
