No you mention it, how rare exactly are oak greens? Does anyone have numbers or percentages made of that variety?

Oak Green seem to be pretty common but a nice colour so quiet sought after.

No idea of numbers imported but there seem to be quiet a few late model 16v in Oak.

Wasnt there a nice `baby blue`? - like kind of solid non metallic bright blue too? Sure I saw an 8v for sale on the bay a while ago that looked quite nice

Speaking of blue, there's a GTI down my road in this kina blue



Is it a factory color, or has it been resprayed, 'cause I think it looks stunning

My educated  guess is that its either a PPG special pearl mix, or possibly House of Kolor (HOK) true blue, defo not a standard VW colour, as it as no "dirty" fliptones down the side of the car, which is what you get on cheap OE colours, also painted slam panel is a giveaway that it been painted...

Got to be the one of the most common colours to be honest.
