This page ranks colour rarity from the decoded EPC selector records, so it is a production-statistics view rather than a surviving-cars registry. Liftback / sport-roof splits are read from the enriched body code, with the EPC model code used as a fallback. Engine filtering uses the enriched engine code where available, with safe frame/model-code fallbacks. Paint swatches are pulled from the archive paint-colour library when available.
