Thanks Aaron, it's pretty close!

Now I am wondering if there has been any other toranas painted in true blue so I can see some more examples.
Picking a colour to repaint the car has been a big challenge.

have a look at Azure Blue, LH colour, and Casino Blue.

 

I shortlisted Azure for mine, but in the end stayed original

Personally I'd go with Azure Blue to keep it troo to its roots.

It's only slightly different but each to their own.

As A9X said above, Casino blue is also very close.

The LX hatch in OP's first post is my boss's car. It is a Nissan Pulsar colour circa 1989-1990. I can ask him for the code if you like.
