Anyone know if there is an offical BMC green out there that is similar to this Toyota FJ4 green? It is called Army Green and really has hints of a classic BRG non metallic colour that looks amazing.

In a recent Mini Magazine, there was a nice Mk3 that looked similar, but he owner could not remember the actual color he picked >_<

Yeah was thinking same thing, but the Tundra has more yellow in the green - where as the Army Green has more blue (for the classic BRG color). But I was thinking same thing before I saw them together.

Rover Sage green - from the late 1960's. Used on the Rover 2000 and 3500 saloons. Rover paint code 602

Not quite the same but maybe worth a look is BMC Almond Green, which was also briefly revived by Rover when the MPIs first came out.

Brooklands green? Don't think it was used on minis but is a really nice BRG type colour - most brooklands green MGs are described as BRG when sold it seems.

British Racing Green (GN25) looks quite close.
