It might be Jezza, as there were only made 500 right hand drive cars, maybe you have some limited colors.

Funny thing is that in Portugal, there are only a few genesis, and there are no boulevars across the country, and i see lot's of both across britain.

cos they are totally different shades  i think the 'brilliant' is schwartz black which is metallic.
