They said they were Neptune Blue & I agree.

It's not the VIN number you need to look at. As already said it's the Trim Code which is on the same plate.

I have Deep Sea Green in my Arden Green 75.

I think I've only ever seen one Blue 75 with Deep Sea Green interior.

Wow. Not quite so straightforward!

I did actually take a picture of my VIN plate: the trim code is exactly the same as yours Mick: RKH.

It's odd. I keep changing my mind as I look at it too! Maybe it doesn't photograph well!

The reason I ask is because I very occasionally see Neptune Blue interior bits for sale. My seat bases (headed+electric) are not in great condition, so a quick fix would be a replacement set. But I don't want to buy some in the wrong colour!

I suppose it wouldn't make sense to have dark blue paint, then use blue inside. Would make sense to have blue and blue together...

I'll take a photograph of my Neptune Blue interior tomorrow and see if the colour is the same as the above photograph? or different?
Sorry.
When I said " its Deep Sea Green" above, I should have said "Neptune Blue".
Time to got to bed!

Definately neptune, my interior has a single green carpet finisher and when you put the two together it stands out like a sore thumb.

I think I am 99% sure it is blue now. Thanks everyone.

Daft thing is, I really wanted sandstone, but compromised.

Difficult to tell as the picture will appear different on different screens, but I'm in the Neptune Blue camp. DSG is very green which this isn't.
