Paint colour
I have an 1999 Autosleeper Legend and need to find what colour white the cab is to enable me to buy the paint. I would also like the skirting colour that goes around the whole vehicle (dark grey colour).
Also would anyone know where to obtain it?

Re: Paint colour
There should be a label some where with the paint code, maybe on door pillar or in the engine bay.
A local paint repair shop may offer some help if needed.
I say there should be, as that is where I have found it on my vans and cars.
Sorry not sure about the skirting.
Best of luck.

Re: Paint colour
As Richard advised above, there should be a paint colour/code label - note that this will be related to the base vehicle manufacturer (Peugeot, Fiat, VW etc) rather than Autosleeper.
The colour may be shown as a code which will help track it down, e.g from Halfords website:
"The Halfords Peugeot 'Bianca White' car spray paint is an exact match for the Peugeot codes: EWP, P0WP, P3WP & 249."

Re: Paint colour
The Legend is on a Ford Transit , these are the colours of the years quoted....
Ford Transit Diamond White ZA 1972 onwards
Ford Transit Ivory White 3MP 1985 onwards
Skirt colour is Austin Rover / Land rover Slate Grey.
The colours will have weathered over the years. An automotive paint supplier will scan the actual paint and give you an exact match.

Take Pauls advice and get the paint scanned to be sure of a true match.

Re: Paint colour
When our N reg Duetto was repaired the paint shop said it should be diamond white according to the paint colour but it was ivory white. They took a sample to a paint specialist to make sure it matched.
One of my Landrovers was BMC champagne not white as I presumed.
As others have said the best guarantee of a match is scanning.

Re: Paint colour
As a light aside, BMC had a colour "Snowberry White". The trade used to refer to it as "No very white"
