One word of caution, I have found that there is sometime more than one colour linked to a code, at least when it comes to BL and its component companies.
For instant I am painting mine Carmine Red and I have seen at least three versions of this with similar codes. One was more purple than red, then there is the correct red and there is also a darker Rover colour with a similar code.
I am have actually gone with the Rover version of Carmine because I prefer it but that only works if you're doing a full respray.
There may be different carmine reds just as there are several old English whites but if you ask for Triumph code 96 there is only one Triumph 96, if its wrong its either been mixed wrong or the car has been resprayed previously.
Rover did have a habit of using Triumph paint codes but using a different base shade so it will mix darker.
