  • Paint Code Help

    Hi, Having issues finding the correct colour for my Ledbury Maestro

    Looking at the vin plate the paint code states JLW (could be JEW as slight bubbling on the plate) and i cannot find this code anywhere in the rover paint codes.

    The JEW code comes back as a Jaguar colour Solent Blue does this sound feasible. I believed my car was Mdinight Blue but looking at Solent blue jags it could be close

    I think it is likely to be JQW - Midnight Blue

      Thanks for the reply. That was my thinking, but the plate says different. Maybe it was a mistake during production i have a picture of the vin plate showing the letters that i will try and attach

            Ledbury will be midnight blue. They only came in 3 colours I think.

                That plate is hand stamped so could quite possibly be wrong.
                Ledbury cars came in :
                Flame red,
                White diamond (or is it diamond white - whichever the rover colour is - the other one is a ford colour)
                Midnight Blue

                I think that is it.
