Yes, I agree that the definition of BRG was open to much interpretation by 
all British car manufacturers back then.  I don't have a particular color 
code in mind, but my preference is for the darker shades, which were more 
like the "authentic" (whatever that means) BRG as seen on the Blower 
Bentleys of the 30s or the BRMs and Vanwalls of my youth.  Those were the 
days...
