Please advise what colour cars had tan interior.
I presume ...black, red...others??

 

According to Nigel Thorley, the following body colors could be paired with a tan interior. Beige interiors had another palette (BRG, Red, Maroon and Black):

Warwick Grey
Primrose Yellow
Opalescent Dark Green
Opalescent Gunmetal
Opalescent Golden Sand
Opalescent Maroon

Thanks JPG ....and what years did the opalescent colours run from?

 

Also should have asked....I have seen tan in white cars....not original?

 

Also you have to define what you mean by "tan". There is a colour called that is is really quite orange, and what might generally be thought of as tan is probably biscuit. In that era just about any colour combination could be special ordered.

I think opalescent colours started in 61.

 

Old English white with tan interior was available on Mk2 as a standard scheme, but not on the Daimler apparently (my Mk2 is white with a tan interior). Thorley's book does not provide dates, but it seems that the color combinations were available from Oct. 62 to the end of production in 1969. Note also that, like for the Mk2, you could order any combination color for a supplement, so "standard" combinations are just indicative.
Best,

OK....Thanks guys.
