what colour is my car?

Post by karllap »

Hi,
My Dad has a 2000 dark blue 406 saloon (think its metallic) is there any where I can find the paint code for the car or does anyone know what the colour/code is?
If there are different dark blue colours I understand that you will need pics.

Thanks

The code should be marked somewhere on the car (I can't remember where though unfortunately), however if you PM me the registration number I can look it up on Peugeot's servicebox for you!

On saloons and estates from 1999 onwards, the paint code is printed on a white sticker found on the driver's A-pillar (open the driver's door as far as it'll go and look where the hinge meets the body). I would guess your paint code would be one of these:

KMWC - Monaco Blue
KMPD - Delft Blue / Rhodes Blue
EGED - China Blue

If it's not one of those, then tell us what it is, and give me a photo of your car so I can stick it on our Wiki :cheesy:
