millsy 10 Posted February 18, 2011 the paint is 1990 LA5Y helios blue sometimes looks purple in bright light and dark gray at night the only panel not original is front n/s wing what was like that when i got the car. I'm looking for one painted in good condition as its not been painted right and started to rust under side light. I have been going through the cars old paper work from 1992 to 2010 and had a lot done over the years at vw garages and found it has koni de-carbon all-round as they are orange and blue 40mm lower springs i didn't know what make till I seen receipts and toe set-up paperwork.
