Ross is right, it's Austin Citron Green (BLVC73). It sometimes gets called Citron yellow. Word of warning - different lights it can change the colour dramatically!

I knew it wasn't applejack but wasn't 100% sure of the correct colour so thank you for clearing me that up.

Thanks Josh

Just been researching into paint colours and year wise mr beans mini would suggest it's applejack, citron was 73-75 and applejack is 76-82 mr beans mini was registered in 76 so that would put it in first year of applejack green.

But if it was registered in 76, there's a good chance it was produced in 75 especially if it was early 76. There may have been some cars using up the left over paint as well possibly.
