How many people own a trafalgar blue morris minors

1966 2 door saloon. I was looking for a dove grey originally but I totally love trafalgar blue now.

In 2009 when looking for a Traveller I'd seriously considered a buying one Trafalgar blue - got comments from my french family "you can't have a Travalgar blue in France !!! - any way old English cars are always green!!!!"

So I settled for an Almond green but would have liked an ex-military olive green. Still like Trafalgar blue.

Mine's a Trafalgar blue 4 door from 1970 and lives in France. I just don't mention the Trafalgar bit!
In a poor light the colour looks similar to that used by the Gendarmerie.

I own a '68 Traveller which was my dad's before he passed away last year. Of all the 60-odd cars cars he ever owned, the Morris was his favourite. Hence it has sentimental value as well as being my family's hobby now![frame][/frame]

Wow thats all i have to say !

Found this pic on my laptop - Sgtbilko is right - Trafalgar blue is similar to that used on vehicules of the French Gendarmerie. Perhaps a bit lighter

Too many. Clearly, Smoke Grey is the best.

[rossrox]

yeah if your colour blind...

wat colour is this

Yes, stag is right, it will be teal blue on a J reg. British Leylands new brighter looking colour schems for the 1970s which only affected the last year of Minor production. Should have a mad '70s colour scheme of limeflower green interior too, whereas the older trafalgar blue cars had a sedate pale blue interior.

Not sure I've mentioned it here before, but I have a trafalgar blue traveler too. H reg and in bits... One day soon1

1972 traveller trefalger blue with limeflower interior

[TANNERS]

sorry after just reading a bit i think i might ave teal blue ??????

[LouiseM]

Yes, most probably. The last of the Trafalgar blue travellers was built in July '68 and teal blue was the only colour to have a limeflower interior fitted as standard. It's very similar to trafalgar blue though so don't worry about posting in the wrong thread!

Difficult to tell Teal Blue from Trafalgar Blue unless you see them together. I have a Teal Blue 1971 MGB GT as well as the Trafalgar Blue Moggy so when they are together the difference is very noticeable.
