I just received the July issue of Hemmings. They list a Tiger that was sold at Godding and state that it had a  Rootes Archive Center Trust Certificate. I had never heard of this. Is anyone familiar with this certification?

Second question relates to another statement in a Hemmings publication (Sport & Exotic Car). The interview with a Tiger owner who has a black car says that black was not a standard Tiger color and had to be ordered special. I wasn’t aware of this. Is this true?
