Ive got to say, that looking at your photos, to me the leather does look as light bluey as it does grey.

Its too dark for Platinum, and too light for swing.

It really seams plausible it is Aqua.

The other 'blue' was 'blues' and that was a very dark, almost black blue which was again very rare....

Yup, Aqua (WG) as confirmed by the 40F suffix on the label.

I bow to your knowledge but any way I look at the seats I'm struggling to see how the colour corresponds to the name, even if it is correct. Odd choice of descriptor but at least the build sheet is correct after all.

Whatever it is, it goes really well with the Dolphin Grey.

Is Aqua an uncommon colour?

Yes, but not necessarily in a bad way... +++

Not at all, I think it's a great choice - well done to the original and previous owner, a man of discerning taste.

I like it even more now I know the inside is in an uncommon colour like the outside.

Certainly wouldn't have called it Aqua though.

At least it has a hint of blue about it. There is some sense.

Jive / Swing / Soul leave a bit more to the imagination +++

Now we have sunny weather and bright days, I can now see that the interior does have a blue tinge to it, so Aqua it most definitely is.
