Default Checking colour code

Hi there.... Is there any way of checking what colour a ZT is from using just the registration?

When I enter mine in, it says it's silver

I am sure it works for other colours too, green, blue etc.

Since you had a serious and decent answer, I thought I'd put a silly one up

I suppose I should ask... is there another shade of red, other than solar red?

If not, then problem solved.

It was a joke answer, since a sensible one had been given. It's a long long time since the dva listed the colour names. Last time I remember it, it was the dvlni.

That car is listed in the build data as a Solar Red (CMU) ZT160 + model with (WSP) Ash/Red/Green Matrix seats.

Hope that helps
