Could be a special order paint job???? Looks like the Mk.1 ZS dark blue, maybe just the light.
Have seen Mk.2 in dark blue, ages ago

I have a feeling that it's light making the colour look weird. If i was to say any colour(s) i'd go for either black or a very dark blue.

I'd say its black. Look at the road/pavement they both look very bluey.
Photos can be a pain TBH, my car looked like it was orange grove in the ads on autotrader, but when I got there it was nightfire. Still, the price was right so I bought it.

It could be Poseidon. Not sure, though - I'm somewhat colour blind!
