hi everyone,

had a look around the forum but couldn't see anything about this. does anyone know what paint code the blue on my 1997 90 is? i've had a look on the plate (blank of course) thought it might be arles blue but i'm not sure.

i think it was resprayed before we bought it so of course it may not even be that actual colour

if anyone has any idea thatd be great, thanks, will

Mines a 1992 and VERY similar to that, and it's called Arles Blue.

I'm not sure if by 1997 they'd changed its name/shade slightly, though...

Looks a bit like mine which is apparently Marine Blue. However, mine's 10 years older than yours so may not be exactly the same.

ok thanks chaps, i'll get a tester pot of each and see if it matches. I just need to repaint the cargo bay and touch up a few interior bits really

Top tip though, you can get them from tradepaints on ebay. Got myself a 2,5 litre tin, worked perfect

I wouldn't be surprised if they'd send you a tiny amount to test....
