Which Black Have I Got?

Can somebody tell me just from the reg of the car which black my wifes FL2 is?

I'm thinking Santorini as I know its not Java (coz its different to my RRS thats Java) Problem is I know of another black too in existence, Sumatra?.

Its a 57 plate, i'm happy to pm the reg. I dont have the V5 handy but want to buy some c/coded door handles and mirror covers

Just...

1. Open passenger front door.

2. Look at VIN plate sticker attached to B pillar

3. Bottom Line states the paint code and name.

My guess is sumatra black 797 and Santorini arrived middle of 2008 if my memory serves me right Thumbs Up Thumbs Up Freelander 2.2e HSE , Privacy, Fully debadged, 19" Chrome SHadow alloys

So you could:
a) Gamble
b) Ring the wife and get her to look
c) wait until she comes home and check yourself

My votes on c) Thumbs Up

I'm OK on the rather fetching and oh so fashionable Stornoway Grey as there's only one colour paint code Thumbs Up

Stornoway here as well Thumbs Up

However I once tried to get some "silver" touch-up for some scratched alloys. I was given a colour code book with at least 100 shades of silver and not one matched my alloys. Good job 4 U there is not as many LR black shades Laughing 2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.
