I'd be guessing Mandarin or Blood Orange, but as it's a non factory paint job, it could be Mitsubishi orange, or Lada orange - ie any hue of orange under the sun.

its definately not mandarin, as mandarin is metallic and looks totally different. It looks like blood orange a BA mark 1 colour. Paint code is HO.

Definately Blood Orange. You wont find the code on it as its an aftermarket respray. Ive only ever seen 1 AU in a BA colour which was a genuine factory spray job - was an AU3 Futura in Acid Rush, one of the VERY last AU's ever made and the colour was to test the paint. Compliance Plate had the right code too.

Yeah, this one was a sedan and it would have looked ok but it was 4WD height and had those ugly cheese cutter rims from the Fairmonts.

That's right, Ford did do some late AUIII's in BA colours to test the paint application in the factory. I too have seen an Acid Rush AU, as well as a Blood Orange AU, but only base models - imagine how much a factory, BA colour painted AU XR might fetch extra?

Was Rapid a BAII colour though? Could be either way with the XR ute.
