What is the official name for this blue?
« on: March 11, 2009, 06:28:53 pm »
Alright guys,

Does anyone know the correct name for this Blue? Is it the shadow Blue, Laser Blue or another Blue? I cant tell because of the lights.











Any input appretiated!

The pic was took at UD last year I think. Is this anyones car on here? Any more pics or info on it would be great!

Cheers
Ollie :drinking:

going by the first shot only, it looks like Deep Blue Pearl, but looking at the other shots i would say that it doesn't flip like the DBP does.

It's not shadow blue thats for sure

It isn't a GTI, so maybe Costal Blue?

Is costal blue a standard VW colour? So do you think that it is custom?
Cheers for your help :happy2:

I take back Coastal, I've just seen it and its much lighter/less purple. Was an S/SE (maybe a few more?) colour.

Most people seem to refer to this as Laser blue metallic, was the GTI pearl? Early Golf optional colour.

Thanks fellas :happy2:
So I could not get this colour on a newer 1.4 tsi 122 then.
I have another question what wheels are these wheels and would they fit a mk5? I saw them at UD on the weekend.
Thanks again :drinking:
