i had a quick look and there isnt many pictures in the grey section, but it has all the names so you could try and find samples to see what matches it best. (thats assuming it is a colour used on a mini)

Hi,
It's not the mini colour. I would say its a pearlescent colour or a maybe a micro pearl?
Cheers,

Audi have a nice a few grey colours in pearl, so it could be one of thoes. I couldn't find any nice example with a quick search on google though.

this is smoke grey http://www.minicolours.co.uk/display.cgi?code=BU15

That cumulus (sp) grey looked the closest. But good call with the yaris colour, that would rule on a mini.
