What colour is my car ?

Golden Tones · 6th August 2021, 22:49

Hello all,

I've just become the owner of my first Rover 75, which is stated as blue but looks sea green, and the paintwork highlights in metallic green when in direct sunlight.

Can anyone tell me the Rover colour ?

Cheers, GT.

Apologies as I can't attach a photo here.

Look on the passenger door pillar for the 3 letter paint code

Ahhh yes - I'll take a look there - Thanks

From the description, I would guess at Odyssey Blue, which in my opinion looks more green than blue! - at least mine does.

Paint code will give you the answer but Odyssey Blue a strong favourite

Thanks to all that replied...

I've looked up the paint code and it is Odyssey Blue !

So to all of the people over the past few days who, on seeing the car have said "Didn't you say that it was blue...?"

I can now reply "It is indeed" !

Cheers, GT.
