My 1996 Anni brochure shows Black (flat) and Diamond Black (pearl effect) as the two blacks available on the Anniversary....this is the same as listed in the 1996 and 1997 MY Golf brochures.
Not sure about other years...I don't have the original brochures.

I didn't know Black Magic Pearl was ever a Mk3 colour.
