Can some one please post pics of java/petrol blue colours so I can work out what colour my car is! And if anyone has a spare bonnet in either of these colours please let me know. Thanks

Java blue.

You will find Java Blue has a purple flip to it in direct sunlight. Have a look at the code on the VIN plate in your engine bay at the front to see what colour it is

If it says blue on your V5 then i very much doubt it will be Mallard green!

If you ring your local ford delers parts desk and give them your reg they can tell you the colour of your car!

Well, I know C5 is Petrol Blue, and D5 is Java Blue. But there are different shades of each, depending on what model of car and the year in some cases. For instance, you can get D4 which is Java Blue, but because it's from an earlier Fiesta, it's ever so slightly different.

And I believe L5 is Mallard green.

So there's 3. Need ash black confirmed
