  1. Talbot Jonquil and Peugeot Antelope Beige are discontinued at Halfords. However, I can recommend Auto Paints St Helens. http://auto-paint.co.uk/carpaint/ Their online ordering system requires make, model, year etc so I used their 'contact us' link to enquire whether they could mix Talbot Jonquil without all of this info. In no time at all, Martin replied that they could mix it on the colour name alone. I placed the order, inserting 'not known' in all of the above fields, and next day but one the aerosols arrived! Just sprayed, and the coach sides look GREAT. The price (400ml compared to Halfords 300ml) was very reasonable and they didn't stiff me on carriage either. So, name your auto paint colour, and the guys in St Helens will deliver . Usual BBC caveat - other paint suppliers exist. PS. whites and creams look considerably different depending on the light source. Under kitchen 'warm' halogen lights the colour looks, well, WARM. More like GWR cream. Under LED lights it looks spot on. So, the colour will look right under LED, fluorescent and daylight, but not under tungsten - what are you modelling for?
