Hard to be sure from pic whether it's metallic - if so then I'd say it's Sapphire LY5V

Your car looks tidy & I haven't seen pics of it before - get some more posted

Hi,

I think Minty may be correct.

At first glance I suspected it could be Zermatt Silver, but I think that would be a lighter shade of silver. Hard to tell from the photo.

I miss my 1983 B2..........

It looks too silver to be Sapphire.
