Colour problem!

Post by corsa_tash »

so my corsa is blue.
but whether it is arden blue or aruba blue im not sure of
all of the corsas that I have seen that are the same reg as mine are arden blue
but the colour chart in halfords says that mine is newer than the arden blue colour and that it should be aruba blue
how can i sort this out?
should i just go to vauxhall and ask them?

first of all why would you ask citroen about your corsa?

second of all what colour does it say on your log book?

ok, well is it a corsa c? coz i'm pretty sure they only did the corsa C's and mk4 astra's in aruba blue. The colour code is on the slam panel...the right hand stamped plate as you look at it. there should be 2 numbers and a letter.

The likelihood is that it is indeed Arden Blue. Aruba Blue is a bright, flat colour.
