Default Guess the colour thread!

G'day Folks,

Can anyone here help me identify the paint colour code for my new PV544?



The wing has been redone more recently (I feel) than the dull bonnet.

The data tag on the car gives a number that's not red.

There's a possibility the red isn't even a Volvo colour - which will be a pain in the arse - but I get the feeling there's a good chance this is as the job done was really thorough. (To the extent that makes me think the shell was only ever red)

I've checked the number on the ID plate and that indicates the red isn't original.

It has been painted really well (as well as being botched by others later on): The entire shell has been done inside door posts etc.

It has been suggested on a different (Dutch) forum that colour code 46 might be it.

Image search on the interweb gave this



Looks like it was a dull day

Yes, looks like "robin rod 46" Is the interior, door panels and seats, grey and cream?
What year and which engine?
