Title: Paint Codes
Post by: ChrisPee on 29 October 2019, 18:18:04

Can someone help me on paint codes please, I'm not familiar with modern paint coding.
My car is (I think) Satin Red (1997 est) the codes I see are VF 35 (is that Omega & estate) 35 was estate in the 60's/70's.
I'm assuming 2RV L96 M79 XN8 72L & 26 are all codes for trim, engine, transmission, paint code etc?
For the record I googled Satin Red and it wasn't even listed on a Vauxhall site? Have I got the wrong colour name?  :-[

For Opel it's called Marseillerot.

Scroll down and you see the "Farbkoden"
