If you look under the bonnet you should see a small brass plate mounted horizontally to the left hand side of the car, on the piece of metal that runs behind the radiator (see photo!). My plate reads TC/725/Z/A, now I won't pretend to know what the first set of letters refers to, but the Z at the end means Kenilworth Blue and the A means black as mine is a two tone car.
