I think tracing the previous owner is your best option... If you want the paint facts.
If you're not bothered then just get a proper painter to colour match. But it would seem you want the hard facts?
Have you e-mailed a picture to LOTUS? Maybe there's someone that will know straight off.

Im now the proud owner of brian & cates car, having bought it early 2008.
Unfortuneately ive not used the car too much, however, after having previously thought of selling and receiving some offers ive shuffled the fleet around and have decided to keep the elan.
its intersting to hear that its a rare car indeed in pearl white - paintwork looks lovely when polished, and hopefully i'll get her out next summer.

Please take lots of photos when you do. There are lots of Lexuses (Lexi?) in our neighborhood in White withblue pearl top coat. It looks horrid on RX330s but I've often though if my Elan was white instead of BRG I'd repaint it in that color. The Elan has just the right mix of planar and curved surfaces to make the best of such subtle shading. You are fortunate indeed!
