Mr Baylis

I don't wish

Just for the record Mr B. drives a latest shape Range Rover,don't think he could even get into a VX

I'm just a humble car salesman(& fellow lightning yellow owner outside of work)

Sorry to confuse things but my vx is brilliant yellow, my hardtop is off a ligtning vx which is a darker more subtle shade of yellow.

Splam,I forgot to check,is your car a turbo? If it isn't & it's not a lightning,then it's not brilliant yellow,but one of the other two shades of yellow depending on model year.

it's a 2002 N/A, i thought i was right in thinking (but probably not) they were all brilliant yellow (turbo included) apart from the lightning.

How do i check what shade of mine is

cheers

Gets complicated but here goes 2002 Model year VX220 2.2,the finish was called 2 coat brilliant yellow paint but the colour was just called yellow.If you open your drivers door,you should see a white label with your chassis No. on(to the left,just below the rod that the door shuts on to).Also on this label is the colour code(If your car is the colour that I think it is,you'll see) 4HU(2002 yellow) & then 4 more letters,the trim code ie XXLS black leather or maybe XXIW black cloth. Steve See I'm wasted just selling them,think how exciting I must be...

Sorry Jase to step over your question. 2GOOD (ex BAYLISS_VX) as you have seen my car, is it the same as lightning or not, i know you answered about the paint code above, i just can't work out if your saying it's the same. You said to me the other day that we had been over this before.

Jase,it might be worth giving an independant bodyshop both codes,too much information is better than too little.I can't even remember now where the P code came from Sam,your car is not the same,your car is more in your face 'acidic' brighter/lighter

OK, thanks - I'l give them both. Just checked the TIS and the P code is listed as the Dupont code, or something
