Not an MG
I know we get the Holborn Blue in the UK.
Lovely colour too.
But I've now seen a couple of blue cars that are totally different to the Holborn Blue.

In the new review video by RSEV's the car he is reviewing is massively different to what I've seen in the flesh.
As was the blue MG4 that Sam Luscombe reviewed too
Holborn Blue is like this

Yet the one on Sam's video and the one on RSEV's looks different again.

On checking the European MG website they get what is called Brighton Blue which looks much lighter in pics etc.
More in tune with the ones that RSEV's and Luscombes reviewed.

I know photos and videos can do weird things to colour but the colours DO match the MG websites blue for each region.

Brighton blue is this one.

Which is almost identical to the review cars

I wonder if the euro blues are different and a couple have also slipped through the net like the 11kw charging and privacy glass have too...

I guess vin number / paint codes would confirm.

Just too different for me for it to be the same colour on all cars.
Especially as it's not a tri-coat paint and is one of the free colours

Can't confirm but I think I read somewhere yours is plain blue with no extra charge and ours (Europe) is tri-coated one. 650€ to be add to the price. MG Spain has said all the three tri-coated will take longer to arrive here massively than the other colors (4 months at least)
 
It's all to do with lighting and display colour rendering. I believe that it's just the one colour (for the UK).

I agree it's one colour for uk cars
Just curious over whether a couple of euro blues have got here by accident.
I appreciate left and right hand drive should distinguish it, but it didn't with the 11kw charging that probably shouldn't have been included either but has been.
