missed the best one, silver slate

There is 2 types of gold also. But was any colour "calais only"?

yes i realize there is two gold colour, but i only had pics of white gold. i know there wasnt any calais specific colours, im just after calais pictures only

There's a few colours missing there. There's an "olive green" colour that was only on 86 models and was an option. I'm sure there's double the amount of colours which have been posted up so far

the old calais turbo website had this, but cant find it for ya mate! Like the idea The olive green wogster is talking about has the paint code 2C035D, im trying my all to find a LW5 plated vlt this color. platinum gold, kimberly bronze, midnight blue are afew more calais colors if someone can link pics to them

i know there are alot missing, but they are the pics i have so far. im after poeple to add pictures of the colours ---------- Post added 13-02-11 at 15:16 ---------- thanks katsa olive green yeah i know the colour, rare as rockin horse ****. added platinum gold and kimberley bronze see what else i can dig up

Yeah sweet thread man Put some more pics up people Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I'm sure there's double the amount of colours which have been posted up so far Yah everglade only available in 86 with sandalwood interior..Got a vl parts manual that list every colour and trim combo available with that colour..

sounds good, eucembene blue, bit lighter than imperial blue,mulberry over champagne i thin kwas a different combination, plenty out there, should make a picture list of every vl color that came out, that would be very handy. i rememeber seeing one a long time ago but not sure where it went

I could be wrong but I'm quite sure Eucumbene Blue only came out on Commodore, not Calais...

that first imperial blue you posted is eucembene i think... mine is imperial, it has a purpley tint to it, eucembene has a greyish tint to it Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yeah it deffinitely stands out because it's so different from all the other VL colours. I've only ever seen one original VLT in that colour and it was a Berlina.

My first VL was that colour and you're right about that picture. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

mine is encumbene your trying to say? or just a correction of my spelling?

thanks patch, fixed up now. hope you dont mind i used your pic for imperial

Quote: Originally Posted by patch [View Post] mine is encumbene your trying to say? or just a correction of my spelling? Speling. I could never spell the damn thing myself as well when ordering touch up paint. For years I thought it was Encubine.

I had a 86 Calais a little while ago that was a solid Blue called Evening Blue. As far as im aware, it onlt came on the '86 models, and only with a Cerulian interior.
