Paint Colour

Post by Eddi » Mon Mar 03, 2014 8:58 pm

Good evening,

Can any forum members give advice on the colour of my vehicle please ? The engine bay and firewall are all grey but the exterior colour is cream over brown. Was this a standard colour scheme on carawagons of this year ?

It's not the first Carawagon I have seen with a two tone colour scheme split like that, but most seem to be the standard LR colours. It may well have been painted at Carawagon, but I would lean towards it being a home job. Typical of the era though, doesn't really look out of place :cheers:

From memory wasn't John's carawagon cream
and brown (or was the brown a slightly different
shade of brown) :shrug: .I am sure John will be along and
let us know.

John's last Carawagon was a 'proper' LR colour - Sand.

I do like the brown and cream - don't change it Karl, it's part of the vehicle's history :cheers:

Cheers,
Robin.
