Does look persian red, otherwise if you can't read it near the strut mounting point, it is sometimes on the "tyre pressure plaque" on the inside of the door.. very rarely there though.

i looks more of a darker colour than that. Its hard to say though, as it looks different in the pictures and in which light. :(

I checked on there shooorn94 and theres no plaque :(

I'm sure citroen will be able to tell you, take a trip down with your vin and they'll get it up on the system, or just ring them see what they say

Would you say your card darker than persian red? Brighter? They did do quite a few shades/tones, some only on "special" models-Ben_L's old 1.1 for example.

Looks darker and more burgandy pinky colour than persian red. I'll ring citroen tomorrow and see what they say.

Is there no where online to check?
