what year is it?

as there a a few beiges..the year might narrow it down

Timor, Tuscany, Savannah, Mochca, Bamboo....etc

Autosleeper took the timor beige vans as a rule but it depends on year

1985 - cheers for your interest.

I got a mail back from autosleeper with an answer a short while ago. Wasn't sure that they would bother.

Is that Woolies as in pick and mix - should just go for the roller job all over!

Too much to take on with the rust that needs sorting. Just taken my rear side window out and practically no panel left around it.

The paint code can be found on a silver sticker under the passenger seat, service book, or on the white paper sticker that was attached to the door post above your accelerator pedal.

If you can't find it and you really need this information then take a trip to your local VW dealership with your registration number and your chassis number to the parts dept.
