Default Identify this color in the junkyard

During my junkyard runs I always enjoy looking through the Discos on the lot. I was in the yard and came across this unique color, had never seen it before

I ended up grabbing the original owner's manual out of it, too, those are hard to come by

Looks like the same color as Urban Panzer's Disco. Too bad, I don't think he's been on the forum for some time.

Oslo Blue?

Jon Slater in Ashviille, NC has one that color in a D2 as pictured in this link on FB. It looks a little different in the multiple pics on his FB page depending on the lighting.

Rover did an odd blue in '95 only, called Biarritz Blue. I thought they only offered the color on RRC LWB's but that could be the color on the DI you have pictured. It could also be a respray that has little relation to the original color.

Here is an interesting link for D2: The D2 Colour Chart - Australian Land Rover Owners Notice my old 1999 D2 in Rioja Red, only year that color was available on a D2. ;-)

Perhaps we could start something similar for older rovers.
