Toad 0 Posted August 9, 2007 If you've got the service book for the car the sticker is replicated in that. It also shows all the optional extras that were fitted to the car too. Think the paint code is found somewhere else too, but not sure where. Looks nice Mrs Tonka. Good to see another owner on the forum. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bojmobile 0 Posted August 10, 2007 It's LC3U (colour code) Dark Burgundy Pearl - I'd bet my house on it! Should be an orange sticker with paint code on it on the inner driver side wing as you look in the engine bay and also a sticker in the boot - just near the latch. PS - It's the best Corrado Colour! I miss my old one below:- :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
