Hi,

My car is Palma metalic green and the code (on the paint label, still on the car) is L95K.
However - the car in the photograph does not look the same colour as my car - it looks a much darker - more khaki than mine.

L95K is Palma Green Met,it is the colour of feature car in the early brochures and looks much lighter in the brochure, a sort of inbetween Viper and Colibri but the car in the pic looks more like a flat Colibri.
I have this pic from VW Motoring which we must assume is Palma from the date but again looks much darker like colibri.
