I have made this collage of what I think is all the mk1 mg metro colors that were available (please correct me if you know otherwise)
but the question is, which do you like the best for a mk1 mg?

My mk1 turbo is OPORTO metallic which is a dark red, The paint code is CMP and is quite a rare colour on the metro, was used on the mini also. I had a 1985 mg turbo in the 1994, can not remember if mk1 or mk2, which was a bit like the opaline green but more turquoise in colour and was also metallic. I like the zircon blue best from the pics you posted. Try this link for more colours and codes

It would be interesting, if it was possible, to find out how many mg metros were made and what colours they were. Also how many of each colour are still on the road.
