Triumph white is a creamy white, when mixed the paintshop will add surprising quantities of yellow and even black to the base colour but it's a warmer colour than the Sebring White which is an icy, almost blue colour. There was also shades called Nimbus White or Spa White available back in the day, Spa was also a warmer colour, but none of them are as creamy yellow as the Old English White, which as you say is a BMC colour.
I'll attach a colour chart - which shows 19 as 'Pure White' - plus a photo of my 1200 Estate, resprayed in Triumph White, in the hope that it will give you some idea of the colour. A photo unfortunately never seems to reproduce a colour as accurately as seeing it in the flesh, though.
its listed in this colour chart as 19 pure white and most of the other charts its listed as pure white, my gt6 has been painted before so will have to try and do a colour match to double check its been painted in the original colour.

Triumph White or New White, 19, has a slight creamy look. BMC Old English White is darker, more yellow in it.

sorry to drag this up from the past but that's the first time I have seen it as new white not pure white, just received my heritage certificate back and it says new white so was a bit confused when I kept seeing it referred to as pure white. oh its a "71 gt6 btw
is there a modern paint reference number (RAL number)?
cheers Dan

im hoping not as that may (or may not) confuse things, I was told it has come from the Isle of Man and been sat in the uk for a while

cheers for the replies will try and put some photos on during the week, hopefully it will be within my IT grasp.

hello all, been sitting in the background observing things for a while getting a feel of the forum and I like what I see!
I have recently bought a imported gt6 mk111 which I have got running and moving (needs a brake master cylinder).
jobs I am going to be doing next is cleaning out and sealing fuel tank, replacing fuel pipe and master cylinder/brake pipes
I have just received a heritage certificate and all the numbers match it (original engine that runs sweet with 50k on it) the next problem I am going to have is that it has been imported but there is no paperwork with it so to register it in the uk I might need the help of the club if they do car inspections?
im used to rebuilding land rovers so this is a touch out of my comfort zone, I need to jack it up to get underneath it!
and please be gentle with me!

they found the commission number for me by engine number body number, and supplied photos.
it took them longer but they found the commission number (this was a GT6 don't know if a TR7 is the same.
