There were also some unique for J special editions - Brighton and Belfast in 1988, but no info on what these were or colours, plus a J version of the 1986 UK Mini Chelsea which was red and had this type of wheel cover; however info on the J version says it was offered in silver but does not say if this was alongside or instead of the red. So I think - given the film date - this was probably drawn as something specific, and probably from the three J special editions. But no idea which one.
