A bit more detail is needed Ronnie.

Year of car, MM, series II type grill or the later type on the 1000's? What is the exterior colour?

Part way down this page gives you grill colours/ wheel colours/ coachline etc for your exterior colour.

Yes, it's the right info - Old English white is a creamy white.

50/50 mix of Dulux White and Magnolia is spot on..........and ideal for wheels and grille.
