Or, what code is Silver (1995) ... I think there was only one silver ?

tar,

John

Ross many thanks, that could have been embarrasing

so, where should the code be, on the car?

It should be on the bulkhead or inside one of the wheel arches I think.

The paint code on mine is located just behind the pas reservoir but is almost rubbed off,have a look there

ps,mine is MOYC Quartz silver.

Matt, so helpful!!

I looked where you said and almost indistinguishable letters just read

MOY ?P

(the last letter normally refers to the internal trim)

so that's it, quartz silver
