6681 is the build date of your car: February 23, 1995.
The paint code should be somewhere nearby, similarly stencilled in the format xyz-ab where xyz is the paint code and ab is the factory code.

I am not sure which to look for? See my pictures.

Your paint code is:

EWP - BANQUISE WHITE PAINT

Do you mind if I ask how you sussed that out? I've been looking for my wife's AX's paint code and I can't find it

[CitroJim]

On an S1 AX you'll find it stencilled on the RH inner wing between the strut tower and the washer reservoir filler neck..

Here's mine:

On later cars, it can be partially obscured by the engine ECU...

The paint code can be obtained from the VIN on servicebox if you cant see it on the bodywork.

Terribly sorry, but do you need to be registered to access servicebox?

You have to pay for servicebox, but we have a subscription, and since you're a current donor we dan look it up for you if you post the VIN.

If it's for your C5 VIN ending in 169, then your paint code is:

KGN - BOURRASQUE PAINT

Thanks anyway, fortunately the sticker on the B-pillar is still intact!

Sadly info not recorded for that car, it does tell us that the upholstery colour is FZ....

If you post a nice picture of the car, (and the year of manufacture) we can probably work it out, as Citroen only used a limited range of colours at any one time.

And look at my last post in this thread for the AX paint code location and from that we can advise what colour it is
