That looks like a Vert Amandier Metallic ERH (Onyx) to me...
or, Gris Gabion ERZ (Silver Moss) depending on the light.

Re: Favourite colours for cars
..and in dull, out of date news in 2018 the UK in general plumped for grey as their number 1 choice when buying a new car. It wouldnt have been acceptable in the 1970's although Tom Robinson did wish he had a grey cortina, whiplash aerial, racing trim.....

Just seen a lime-green Scirocco with black roof and other bits, enhanced with copper flashes and huge copper coloured wheels.
No camera at the time, unfortunately as words cannot describe it's puke-making ugliness.

Favourite colours for cars
I turned down a photo opportunity today of quite a striking coloured car in a supermarket carpark, parked well away from others......Now who would have the confidence to go into a showroom and order one of these.....
