If you have the car the paint code should be on the vin plate.

I know it doesn't help but my TX2 is Nightfire Red and its a Rover colour dating back to the ninties.

Try going into halfrauds and look through the spray paints, pick out all the silvers and find Platnum silver.

I heard one of the blue's is a rover colour too.. so its a good chance its a rover colour then if they used a lot of them?

I am only guessing mate but maybe they had a deal with Rover back in the day. Bad thing about Nightfire Red is that there is 4 shades these days!!


Have you phoned up Mann and Overton, or your local dealer/service agent and asked. They gave me mine.

No i haven't tried that. I haven't had it long dont really know where the local dealer is.. there's couple specs of rust on the wheel arch i wanted to sort out as its getting dryer and warmer.

Its defiantly platinum silver as when i google LTI platinum silver the cabs are identical colour.. i know its only a picture but as rough idea. Just the code doesn't match anything lol.

It seems that LTI always used traditional Leyland/Rover Group colours. Presumably they now use Chinese made ones.
