The short answer is that there isn't one. I asked all over the place for years and eventually concluded that they made it up in batches at the time and they all varied a bit. This was confirmed by Buzzsolomoto when I asked him at the IoW.

where are you? If you swear on a stack of bibles that you'll give it back, I could lend you an airscoop to match it to. I'm in Maidstone and will be at Hastings this weekend.

This is my scoot.

Hi!
My friend RobertoFolia, registered in this forum too, say that this colour code is a Lada 208 colour code.

Plasticman (who posts on the LCGB site sometimes) has a Jet 200 and that is painted a Lada colour.

The innocenti colour is very similar but it is different. How different I'll have a better idea after I've seen mine next to a GP. the Serveta colour is actually not as nice as the innocenti one. Its more mustardy.

Caterpillar yellow fades in nicely if doing some touch ups ;)
That's not going anywhere...

Thanks, used to think that they were the same.

Your Serveta looks excellent by the way. Did have mixed feelings about that seat when I first saw it but now it looks right and really suits the scooter.
