I was just wondering if theres any colour charts and/or colour codes I can get ahold of for the Corsa?
Particularly looking for that dark yellow / olive colour the old shape Corsa came in. Anybody have a name or any info about it?
It must be a somewhat unliked colour, don't see many Corsa that colour about. Did they continue this colour onto the newer shape Corsa?
Thanks.

The colour you want is Brocade yellow. The colour charts are at Vauxhall garages 
It's a great colour, just very rare for some reason.
They didn't continue the colour as they began using Titan Gold instead.

Might feel a little awkward pulling up outside a Vauxhall garage in a Mini and asking them for some old colour charts.. 
Is there a close match between the Brocode Yellow and Titan Gold? Any pictures, especially of the Brocode Yellow, that would be excellent, I'm having a hell of a time trying to find some online.
Thanks Ed.

Appreciate the help guys. 
Brocode Yellow actually looks more 'Applejack' or 'Citron' than a dark yellow that I thought it was! Weird colour, but it looks well.
Reason I ask is for the possiblity of spraying another car this colour.
