Title: What Colour Blue is this? TDi
Post by: Betty02 on May 30, 2015, 09:42:30 pm
Hi chaos, following yesterday's thread I bought another cheap TDI as the faults on that one were too much! Very high miles but very cheap, needs tarting up but it's just for the mrs to go to and from the stables, needs colour coding but what's the name of the colour?

It looks like Laser Blue (ish). Definitely not Shadow Blue

Could be Coastal Blue, but I think that might have been a bit lighter.  Have you had a look for the paint code on the vehicle data sticker on the inside cover of the vehicle service book?
