I don't think the list of interior colours is correct. For example there are three very distinct greys in the 993, one dark, one medium and one light. I can only see multiple references to Classic Grey.

I also believe some of the codes should refer to combination colours (eg grey plus blue is a fairly common combination). I think also partial leather / full leather is also encoded in the two letters. Unfortunately I have never seen an official list of these and I think the lists out there have been gathered together with the inevitable errors.

You are right Ian, there are certainly errors in the listing above - there are 2 greys in 993, Marble (light) and Classic (dark). The other problem here, as you rightly refer to, is the huge choice of combinations that also exist. I have the Adrain Streather book at home and it lists some of these combo codes. Will refer to it when I get a chance later.
