Arbor Green, Birch Grey, Lavendar Grey, and Pastel Blue Metallic as shown above are correct, as those photos were taken by expert extraordinaire Urs Schmidt.

The more common colors are probably fairly represented. My biggest doubts, not being a true expert, are the photos of Pacific Blue and Pastel Blue. They may be correct...or not.

This is very useful. I would be good to have more than one example of the colors if available. Some of the photos are of better quality than others which can further cloud the issue. Although most photos will be of modern interpretations of the colors, this is still a terrific resource. Thank you for going to the effort in creating this.

I have a factory color chip set for the late (post mid '53) 120s not quite sure how to share the info but if you need assistance I can do my best.. IT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT LEAVING MY POSSESSION!

A very fine resource. I have a 53 FHC originally painted pastel blue...i'm in the process of restoring the car and would like to know if anyone can provide the paint codes so i can make up a batch and see what it looks like on metal. i'd also like the code for metallic pastel blue as it appears to be a more attractive color...any help would be appreciated. thanks.

Does anyone have a paint code for Pearl Grey and Pastel Green Metallic? These are for model cars, and I would prefer a formula that can be mixed in the US (though anything would be helpful)
Thanks!

I have too factory metal sheets of original colours, sadly I have only 6 colours, very useful for me when painting the 120s. In my opinion regarding the pictures of CREAM cars, some of them are Old English White.
And don't be wrong beetween Pastel Blue and Pastel Blue Metallic, even if both named Pastel Blue.
I think to remember that on Heritage the names are the same if metallic or not, I must recheck to be sure, same as per Pastel Geen and Pastel green Metallic.
31 colours were coded on a few years ago XK Gazette, with old code and with new codes for actual paints.

About the debate of Cream and old English White, I think that they are different colours, but some people thinks ( and wrote about this fact on books)
differently. Anyway I found colour tracks on original cars in places where sun cannot change the colour, and I suspect
that the 2 colours are different. Again on the heritage certificates, they write Cream when Cream . . . .
But it is an endless story.

Our Heritage sheet lists our 1956 XK140 as Cream not Old English White, but the colors above say that Cream wasn't available in that year???

Does anyone have the paint code : "old english white" or "cream" for a jaguar XK140 ( year : 1956 )
anything would be helpful.
