Would have thought being a late war vehicle it would have left the factory in OD which was the standard allied base colour by that time.

i know where there is a brand new Windsor with 15 miles on the clock. It is painted in dark semi gloss green, effectively British post war green. I assume that it was delivered very late in the war or even after hostilities ceased and painted in the gloss green for post war service. Of course, it may have been painted whilst in UK reserve.
