P7 late mif-laye 90s catalogue in Archive, search till you find the one with the rear fork canti's and comes in Orange colour.

Can check in more detail if you want, but serial number makes life easier.
 
Is the seat clamp the right way round?

I believe that they changed the slot from back facing to forward facing around 1997/8 and some at that time got a disc tab. Looks like it could be a rear facing slot with the clamp the "wrong way round". No wishbone brake pip either so it's around the advent of V brakes - I'd go 1996/7 as a guess.

Could always be a respray. My RX9 looks that colour, so could have been sent back to the factory in 2014 ish.

The keyhole for the seat clamp is front facing.
Was respraying a service that Orange offered at somepoint?
 
They have done for a while, and may still do. I sent my P7 back to them to be resprayed. They strip them and then send them back down the paint line. Can only have current paint pallette, so retro correct isn't usually possible.

This is mine
