What colour is my car.

[Nutkin]

I have no idea V5 says Grey Garage says silver.

Looks silver to me.

On my corsa there was a paint code just wodnering if there is similar on a seat and if anyone ahs a list to find it.

 

[daveyonthemove]

Paint code should be under the floor panel in the boot (next to spare wheel well).

I'm sure your official colour is Platinum Gray.

Silver.

My platinum grey LCR is registered as silver on the V5 - DVLA don't list specific paint colours as listed by manufacturers, it's just a guide for ID purposes. If your car was green and V5 said silver I'd worry, but otherwise not an issue at all

 

[Nutkin]

im sure its not Platinum Grey as that is the darker one.

Ive heard arctic silver.

Deffo isn't platinum grey as we used to have a leon in that colour and it is much, much darker.

Just not sure what the SEAT official colour is I'm afraid. Sure somebody that has the same colour will be on soon to let you know.

 

[Nutkin]

looked says ASV on the boot thing so im fairly sure its arctic silver now

 

[DPJ]

No, it's called Arctic Grey.

Paint code is LS7N

ASV is engine code i think

 

[Matt85]

Yup, Platinum is darker. Looks like Arctic. Isn't there a Luna one too or did i make that up?

 

[CupraDaft]

There was a luna something or other. Deffo not what James has. It was much more of a silver with a hint of blue trying to get out, very subtle and very nice. I had a Leon FR in this colour as a courtesy car one day and it was gorgeous!!

[Nutkin]

Magic black is metallic pearl effect black. Midnight will I think just be matt black

The only 'silvery' colours available on an '05 plate are Luna Grey & Glacier Blue. Your car looks like an SX model (may be wrong ) which eliminates Glacier Blue (not available on the SX model).

So, the colour of your car is Luna Grey (metallic) - or umm, silver

 

[Nutkin]

Luna Grey it is

 

[AndyVTR]

Ya.

 

[DPJ]

Erm I was wrong. I agree - it's Luna.
