I have a 1998 300 Tdi, I recently upgraded the original wheels but could only get them in black so I had them resprayed in Land Rover Limestone which I believe was the correct colour. The problem is the resprayed wheels don't match the roof. I'm not sure if this is correct, any thoughts? Does anyone know the correct colour code or name for the white on the roof?

I am sure limestone was just the early 90 and 110s. Paint the roof limestone and you have a match.

I think they were Chawton white in 98, I had a Chawton white Defender and the wheels matched the body.

Limestone wheels and roof on series, white for later models. I believe mine is alpine white (1985)

I am sure my 85 90 was ivory white.
Now green with ivory showing through here and there and inside still ivory white.

the roof on my '89 110 is alpine white, so thats a second vote for that. Limestone is definietly the series roof/sides and wheel colours. Although, if you have already sprayed the wheels, asuming you have paint left I would just paint the roof to match.
