The Cup is Mondial blue AKAIK and is a metallic finish. In some lights the Cup and 182 in Arctic blue look very similar, but with the 182 being a pearlescent illusion paint it can look very different.

In this they look practically the same colour:

Oh yes, theyve changed Paddock Green to Petrol blue.

Has the colour changed or just the name? (it must be a different colour, surely?)

So anyone that has a Paddock Green 182 has a VERY unusual colour as theyve stopped doing it now!

So now theres 3 blues to choose from, popular colour!

Its the same colour, just different name.

Its a flip style pearl hence petrol.
