Actually, I believe it is an MG color.  BGR was not a color available 
for my 72 roadster, so I ordered the closest thing available for it - 
green mallard.  The DBSM (dumb body shop man) got himself confused 
and painted it brooklands green, a color spec'd for a later year MGB 
roadster.  I forget which year.  The heck with it.  I call it BRG.
