FIAT paint colour question

tc20

Hi all,
i'm selling our trusty little runabout, a FIAT Cinquecento. I want to find out what the body colour is called. For tax purposes its deemed to be red, but its not red as we know it Jim..
Its metallic paint, not as deep as a cherry red, and i've seen it on a few Bravo/Brava and the odd Ulyssee (sp?), but only on 1 other Cinquecento.
I dont want to advertise it as red, and then have a prospective purchaser say "thats not red", altho at the price its going for, you cant be too picky

All suggestions and help appreciated.

Cheers

I would get the colour code from the body tag and search that number, usually a 3 digit like 168 or 182A or something. You would be more likely to find its description on the web or from a helpful dealer this way !
