Hi guys,

I have a '95 County LWB and am baffled as to what color it is. It is a fairly dark metallic green.

The sticker near the radiator that would have that info is long gone. Every website that list available colors disagrees with the other sites. As a result, I'm no closer to figuring this out.

Thanks!

Stuart, this is the information I found located in the RAVE manual. These are the colors listed as offered on the 95 LWB models:

ALPINE WHITE
BELUGA BLACK
ARDENNES GREEN
MOSSWOOD
PLYMOUTH BLUE
AVALON
NIAGARA

Given the list, I would say your color is Ardennes Green.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

It looks most like Epsom Green, even though that wasn't listed as an option.

When we do the respray, I may just show the wife some green LR color choices and say, 'Pick one, darling' and let it go at that

I've always wanted a Rover the color of Oklahoma red mud. I'm afraid to paint one that way though.

if she is a 95 vehicle its likley to be Epsom green, Ardennes was a fairly old colour at this time being brought out (if my memory serves correctly) for the 89 MY - it was previously Cypress Green

I'm partial to the Brooklands Green, which is not metallic and therefore to me a proper British Racing Green, whereas the color called BRG on the Rovers in that period, as far as I know, is metallic. As far as I know, the BG was available on the LWB only in '94 and a big reason why I'd prefer that year!

Hi Granny,

A fellow SoLaRoS (Southern LR Society) member looked up the color with the VIN; it's Epsom Green.

Thanks all.
