Color Code

What is the color code for Palomino? Dealer didn't know what Palomino was, the parts person said it was 8326.

If you don't have the credit-card sized metal plate that came in your glovebox, check the plate next to the hood latch. It is 174 on my '87s, I believe on the 123s it is 1?4, should be stamped there.

Otherwise the vin will tell on the Russion M-B site.

Good point, Saffron is the non-US color description for "Palomino". I don't believe that leather was available in the 240D?

Yea but you can't take the Russian site as totally accurate.
MB Tx starts with 1, as in 154.
Same color in leather is 254.
