L52M  SCHWARZBLAU, was not really a rare colour as I recall, and visits to VW shows would reveal that there are still plenty about...
And what does it say on your Logbook about the colour, my guess is that its a Blue!

Open the trunk and look around the spare tyre there should be one sticker, and on it is written all the data for the car, VIN number, engine type, gear box type and on it you can fine the original paint number for the car like it come from the factory, if it is not repainted.

He already has the paint code! but couldn't find his colour on the linked list in the above thread...

When I get back to work next week, I'll check the paint code, and see when it was introduced by VW, its most likely a colour that was brought in towards the end of the Mk2 production run... though I'm sure I've seen it on SB cars!

Anyone have a SCHWARZBLAU SB car?
