You don't have to link to the thumbnails

I'd say that Mauritius has a very slight plum-colour undertone to it.

would I be right in thinking that cabs didn't come in royal blue??

and after years of weathering on the paint, would there be much difference?

I'd imagine there would be a slight difference as they are different colour codes

Mauritius blue, however, was a convertible-only colour, introduced for the M-Tech version.

Was also available on the touring.

Bad picture but I think the near car might be your colour and the further away touring is mauritius

I would have thought the opposite applies to the above photo.
