Cheers Shepgti... I think mine must be Tordano Red, but I agree the number wasnt in production in 1997/98.

This is so strange... Need to find a Tornado Red in the flesh and compare!

Thanks again everyone for the help on this  :cool:

Maybe it is Tornado Red and was sat around a while before it was sold.

Well it turns out we were all wrong!

Last night I stripped out my boot liner and finally found the colour code sticker!! It was right at the back of the boot!

The code is LQ3A - Monza Red. I cant find much about the colour on the Internet.... Strange eh?

What ya think?

Yeah, unless it was a customer specific order?... Ive searched LQ3A - Monza Red and it is definitely a VW Colour.

How would I know if my car is an import? It doesnt say anything on the V5

Here are some pics of my car:

Thanks WAYNE... As you can see from the seconf picture - the colour is slightly different on the bonnet. The bonnet and grille was taken from a Colour Concept (Flash Red) with no fading.

I feel pretty special MONZA RED!!!!
