HI guys, not new to the forum but first post. Have been trawling through the advice on here about buying used. I have found a stunning late 61 plate MY12 in "grey" and I wonder whether this is Orkney Grey or the earlier stornoway grey. I much prefer the lighter Orkney. Seller is unsure and cannot quite tell on the pics but don't fancy a 400 mile round trip if its not quite right. Any advice on when they changed the colour? Thanks!

You could phone the seller and ask for code on plate in engine compartment to ensure you get correct colour. If you ask for VIN number you can then check on everything fitted to the model. John

4000 mile round trip now that would be some going if you did not like the colour

wouldn't it just!

Why not get seller to look under the bonnet it will be on the front slam panel, only a phone call then. On a MY12 probably Orkney Grey.
