My 92 200TDI 110 County has the blank paint code plate, which is of no help to my finding the paint code :(

I would best describe it as Army green, which could of course make it something like Nato green???

I will try to post a pic on here, or on my profile.

Any help much appreciated :)

Go to Halfrauds and ask them for their paints catalogue which has samples of all the landy colours, with holes in them. I found you have to ask coz they don't like givin them out (despite their webshoite claiming it as one of their services) - it will become obvious then. Also they will then make the colour up for you on the spot, when they did mine it was pretty good.
 
Ye i'd say looks like coniston green 2 me! the problem with halfords is they dont have this colour on the shelf to buy, they have 2 mix it 4 you which when they did it for me took ages! (2 weeks)

Maybe it's only the bigger stores, ours in Bodmin mixed mine in about 20 minutes. He was very reluctant to let me have the chart folder though!
 
Looks like Coniston Green to me too, but I did not think they started using it until 93?
I had no paint code on mine, (common aparently), and I spoke to a land rover dealer in Yeovil, where the helpful parts dept gave me the correct code, based on my reg no.
 
Coniston green is the same colour as the old Lincoln green as used on the first Rangies
 
eastnor is metallic isnt it? that also seems too dark to be coniston. the painted headlight surrounds also suggest its been "home painted" so may well not be original paint and MOD paint is much cheaper and some would say, easier to get hold of.

Could anyone help me to find out which mine is too ?
As far as I am aware it is the original , but as you can see it needs a little touch up in the usual spots, I'm also about to replace the door hinges ( once i get an impact screw driver ! ) so they are gonna need done too !
Cheers
