I am having a trimmer look at my interior today and thinking of changing colour, but if this is the original interior I would like to keep it, but I have looked on lots of sites and the only colours that came out with the Snow White paint colour was either blue or the red trim do anyone know how I can find out what the original trim colour might be ?

IM not an expert on roundies.

That trim looks like a two tone type.

All roundies (except some 850s) had solid single colour vinyl. Those door cards dont look correct pattern either.

I was looking at a white 67 mk1 and it has red interior as standard.

Snow White could have come with any of the options (blue ,green ,red, doeskin)
I have doeskin at home and your colour is nothing like it .
It could be a retrim .
The pattern looks mk2 but others will clarify .
As far as I know there is no way to tell original colour apart from finding an old bit of vinyl in yours . Look behind the door strap mounts etc

Your pinch moulds and seat belts tend to indicate doeskin though ..

What year and model car is it? The door cards are not a mk1 pattern that I know of - it looks like they were retrimmed to match seats - the vinyl pattern and colour also do not look original. The year of manufacture will go a long way to determine what the correct pattern should be and the possible colour.
