I have a 98 LSE, that is green, the only problem is I call to get a bottle of touch up paint and they ask me what "color green." So I ask them if they can tell be the VIN # and they say no. I looked under the hood and didn't see a color code. What should I do now?? | ||

post a picture.. somebody will know what it is. If its an LSE its either Woodcote, Willow, or British Racing. | ||

Call Rovers North. They can tell you what color it is by the year and general color "green". For example my D1 is black, called RN, gave them the year and color and walla - "Beluga Black". Where do they get these names anyway? RN - 1-800-403-7591 | ||

The Color Code and color should be in the engine bay. | ||

Thanks I tried Rovers North they were the ones I was going to order touch up from. I also checked under the hood and nothing. | ||

what does the green look like? If its grayish/brownish green, its Willow. If its green with a hint of gold, its Woodcote. If its neither of those its BRG. Whats the vin#? i can find out with that. | ||

I have always wondered what color green mine is as well. I just call it "Metallic Yoda"  | ||

What about Epsom? -L | ||
| Gil Stevens (Gil) Member Username: Gil Post Number: 212 Registered: 02-2002 |
greg.. yours is Charslton green. There were no Epsom LSEs. Coniston 98s are really rare. Thats a cool truck. | ||

Does anyone know how common woodcote green is? I have a 99 in this color and I have only seen one other from Texas to Georgia, and Atlanta is crawling with Disco's.--Matt | ||

What did they call my 95 'gold'?! I too have looked in the engine bay and don't see anything. And Gil, how rare are the Charleston Green ones? I want one! | ||
| Gil Stevens (Gil) Member Username: Gil Post Number: 213 Registered: 02-2002 |
Sus.. yours is Roman Bronze. Charlestons and woodcotes are both pretty rare. | ||

Woodcote is more common in the northeast. A good percentage of 99 DIs I see are woodcote. It is quite rare in range rovers and DIIs. Ron PS charleston is rare for good reason | ||

I can tell you the color by the last 8 of the VIN. However, if it is a 1998 LSE, it is most likely British Racing Green or Willow Green. Those were the only two greens offered as an LSE (but being Land Rover, it really could be any color....) Woodcote Green, Charleston Green, and Epsom Green were all offered in 1998 as well, but not as an LSE. | ||
| Gil Stevens (Gil) Member Username: Gil Post Number: 216 Registered: 02-2002 |
alyssa.. dont forget about that 50th anniversary 98 LSE that ONLY came in woodcote. It had the piping, the TWR wheels and some other stuff. | ||
| Alyssa Brown (Alyssa) New Member Username: Alyssa Post Number: 23 Registered: 01-2003 |
Hmmm. Gil, I thought it was willow, not woodcote. The 50th anniversary editions I've seen are willow. They've got that funky lightstone piping on the bahama seats. | ||

Ron, why is charelston green rare for a good reason??????????????/ Peter | ||

Anyone have a Monte Carlo blue disco? Dealer told me it was "rare"...I've seen two freelanders in MC blue but no DII's. | ||
| Leslie N. Bright (Leslie) Senior Member Username: Leslie Post Number: 1852 Registered: 02-2002 |
I think Ron likes Charleston Green the way I do; we both see it as a perfectly good opportunity to paint a Disco in Sandglow.....  -L | ||
| Gil Stevens (Gil) Member Username: Gil Post Number: 217 Registered: 02-2002 |
Alyssa.. I could have sworn there was a woodcote LSE that came out at the same time as the woodcote 4.0 SE with the funky piping. maybe im nuts, ill try to find a picture. I do have a monte carlo Disco at our store. I think it actualy looks better on the disco than on the freelander. speaking of colors.. maybe Ron or Alyssa might know what the hell color this is, as ive never seen it before.  heres the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2406168772&category=6294 It looks like Caledonian Blue that we never got stateside. I found it odd. | ||

My last eight digits in the VIN # are WA761598. Any help would be great. | ||
| Gil Stevens (Gil) Member Username: Gil Post Number: 218 Registered: 02-2002 |
that would make you... British Racing Green. Im not sure what internal color code is though.. sorry | ||
| Alyssa Brown (Alyssa) New Member Username: Alyssa Post Number: 34 Registered: 01-2003 |
DAH! Gil gets into work before I do! I stand corrected, Gil. Ron tells me that the 50th anniv's WERE woodcote. Please accept my apologies. As for that Disco, on my screen it looks like Monte Carlo Blue, but I know that isn't so. DCS reads C. Blue, so you very well may be correct as to Caledonian Blue. Since it's from Canada, I bet that's the case. You know, what's interesting is that they say that the vehicle has ACE, which it doesn't, and they don't even mention that it's a Canadian car. I also like the bit about the success of the Navigator and the Lexus making us bring out the DII. All of this, and it's from my home town!!!!! | ||
| Gil Stevens (Gil) Member Username: Gil Post Number: 219 Registered: 02-2002 |
sorry alyssa. I dont know why I get here so damn early. It must be the love of the Rover. Tell Ron thanks for the verification. I also found that bit about the Navigator and Lexus pretty amusing. If you all down there in PA need a monte Disco OR an Icelandic Disco or an Orange 01 Disco.. im your man. Please take them!! someone!! | ||
| CJ SZPILA (Crash05) Member Username: Crash05 Post Number: 86 Registered: 11-2002 |
