    No, not by a long shot in what I have recorded. I only have 9 Sandmans in Jasmine, and 4 x non-Sandman.

    The most common I have are Flamenco Red (14 plus a non-Sandman van), Palais White (14 plus 4 x non-Sandman) and Atlantis blue (21 Sandmans). Valencia Orange was only available until the end of July 1978 yet I have 11 of those. I also have 11 Windsor blue (plus a Kingswood ute too) and 11 Caribbean Turquoise (plus a Kingswood van). The rest are all single digit, some colours I haven't even got one recorded!

    ALL Sandman colours, Absinth Yellow is probably the most common recorded of the lot, I have 52 plus 9 non-Sandmans. This would be followed by Mandarin Red with 36 and 4 x non Sandman. Deauville Blue with 28 plus 2 non-Sandman. Cotillion White with 22 Sandmans plus 11 non-Sandmans. There are a couple amongst those counted here as Sandmans which have ? next to them, so possibly subtract 1-3 off these overall colours and add 1-3 to the non-Sandmans.

    Yes bugger... I did see somewhere on this forum that there were a list of colours that were rare to certain models and Tuxedo Black was one of them.
    Just trying to get more info on it.

    Byron used to say Tuxedo wasn’t particularly unusual. You never see them often though.
