Renault 16TS picture

[dunky]

I am putting together a photo album of all the cars I have owned over the last 50 years (yes I know I'm a little old fashioned) and I am searching for a picture of a 16TS like I once owned in Avocado green. I believe that was the name of that colour. It is a pale green like the the inside of an avocado or the colour of an iceburg lettuce. Can't seem to find one of that colour anywhere. Can someone post one up if you have one or point me in the right direction as to where I might find one? Thanks. Bob

Sorry mate! Mine was the same colour, but I only have black and whites! I'll have a deep dig to see if I can find a colour one!

So, buy one & generate new memories! (I could probably persuade a mate to sell you his auto R16TS in this color -it used to be his father's but his fleet wants trimming, so....)
He'd be able the manualise it if you wanted. I've borrowed it while he works on my Renaults & it punts nicely around the bends although the auto is an abomination.

cheers! Peter

The images here I've seen don't look anything like the colour my 1970 16TS was painted in. It was "Sage Grey" and a similar pale green colour to the original British Racing Green.

Yes, the sage is very different to avocado, which in turn is different to the triton and forest green - did I miss any?

I think that Valley green has not been mentioned, Aussie colour, much like forest green

Mine is Mystic Green which is a darker metallic colour from 1976.

Tannen Green????

Not an Aussie 16 Colour, but a nice green none-the-less. Metallic Vert 901. I'm currently doing a TX in this colour and here is the engine bay done.
