(Toreador Red)" Hinz Good point about the problems of true colours on the monitor Dave. I was really just looking for a ballpark colour like it's a burgundy, ruby or bright red metallic. It's for my wife and she's very fussy about colours ! I'm more interested in the full service history, air con, etc side of things - but what do I know ! If I get the paint colour code - is there somewhere I can translate that to a colour ? Thanks Steve >
