Help with interior trim colour
I'm trying to find out what colour trim my s8 has so i can order some new car mats. The code on the Service Book is wrong: it comes up as Aqua and it's definitely not blue.
The best way to describe it - and a way that everybody can check in their own car - is the leather is nearly the same shade as the plastic on the dash; a very dark grey. Any thoughts on what this might be called? Thanks? |

PErhaps the seats have been changed etc, put up a photo as i used to own and Aqua interior so can see why some would have changed it Platinum grey is the most likely i would think..

Platinum is not dark. What year is it, PF or FL?
Have a look at our sponsors advice: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/The-Audi-Pa...r-Audi-A8.html Finally, take up the front main carpets, they "should" have a label on them.

Every option (I think) except electric rear seats, Tiptronic steering wheel, ski hatch, towbar & dimming door mirrors. e.g. Cruise control, NavPlus/TV, Bose, GSM, Xenons, Solar roof, Parking sensors, Alcantara/leather everywhere of course.

Interior hasn't been changed, i'm certain of that as there's a comprehensive history with the car. Only one owner from new so they would have chosen the right colour from the start, you'd hope.

Remember the carpets only came in a limited number of colours anyway, so probably just "dark grey" (Swing).

Looks very similar to the S8 I viewed yesterday - Adrian suggested it was Swing Grey based on the code?

Nice! Definitely too dark for Platinum, but looks great.
