Rover Coupe door hinge

I’ve been trying to find some new hinges for my coupe drivers door as it’s gone wobbly; found the lower one at rimmer bros but the top one is no longer available.. anywhere.
So the one I need is the drivers side coupe top hinge -

Ideally a new one though that seems unlikely, if not then a good used one .. ideally painted tahiti blue, but not essential as i could paint it.
thanks
Richard.

I'll be taking the doors off my old (tahiti) Coupe next week, drop me a PM on Tuesday to remind me and I'll take it off, take a photo etc.

Great. Thanks. Even if it's worn it would be useful to have a spare to work with, I was thinking perhaps i can take the pins out and replace them with new ones.

They had one at the south lake mini centre, 50 quid though!, but i ordered it anyway as no where else seems to have them and i reckon it will be better than a used one that is likely to be at least slightly worn. And worth it if it stops my door rattling every time i go over bumps!
Thanks to the other people that replied too.
