Holly Green 1981 export markets

Anyone know what markets received this colour for 1981 Holly Green.
I’m in Australia and never seen an original in this colour, am assuming it was UK/EU only???
Most here are black, persimmon red, luminous Blue.

Italy was one of the countries in Europe, I have seen one in Finland too.

Managed to find some better examples of an original paint scheme using the Holly Green and the pinstriping in Gold/Light Green.

Doesn't appear to be many of these existing in this colour scheme.

True, only Europe, only Italy and the A3, a rare item today. Saw one years ago in Germany:

Thanks Holger, have used that pic for a reference from the start.

Have now found 4 more pics that detail the 2 colour pinstriping of Gold / Light Green used on the 1981 Holly Green paint scheme.

This bike was on an auction site and is a very low kilometre example with 2,423 original kilometres!

Very interesting that it was Europe/Italy region only.






Thanks PeterD

Incredible color!
and my silhouette hangs like a body bag
hope is a moment now long past,
the shadow of death is the one I cast
