Update on 96-97 colours:

Here is an update based on information in one of Jamsvx's catalogues:

The available colours in Australia for the later one-coloured cars, the ones with OBD II are as follows:

Crimson Mica
Bright Green Mica
Bright Red
Bright Yellow.

Now, just so there is no confusion, I am willing to lay a bet that the colour shown here as "Crimson Mica" is actually what the US calls Bordeaux, code 487, and not the darker Claret from the early cars, code 265.

Bright Green Mica aka Polo Green is code 517

Bright Red is code 559

Bright Yellow is code 518

The Oz market seems to have got Bright Red in place of Bright Silver [406]

If someone in Australia has an all-over Bright Silver car, I would like to know about it, what year was it?

We will amend the spreadsheet to show this information and corrections shortly. I would like to hear from an Ebony [black 235] owner before we list that one as available. It can be mistaken for the very dark Graphite [222] colour on the road.
