Ok......... my paint codes
:D
231 x 3
305 x 2
199 x1
306 x 1

That's all I'm afraid! The only other colour different to those not on the list from a past 360 GLT saloon my parents owned is the ocean blue metallic. Was the early A reg era GLT red different to the later Mk3's? As my parents had one of those. I remember it looking more orange, especially at night.

No it is grey with the later black bumpers! Yeh it looks really stealthy in dark grey, and it is true about in some lights nearly being black!! :D
