Hi all

My 2002 c3 needs a little touch up paint. The paint code is KJF(D) and appears as Passion Red or Ardent Red depending which Citroen paint code list you look at. Citroen customer services says it's Passion Red but I thought it would be a good idea to double check here so I don't get the wrong shade!

By the way I think it's the same colour as the car pictured at the top of the page.

Any thoughts welcome.

The one at the top of the page is Wicked Red - EKQD , so that doesn't clear things up.

The codes do get different names over the years. Give your paint supplier the code (KJFD) and the year of your C3 for a correct match.

Hi Arfur

I do apologise that I haven't been able to reply earlier, and thanks very much for your advice.

I will do ask you suggest, and that will resolve the question. I'll need a little more paint than I first thought as another scratch has appeared from nowhere!

Thanks again.
