Has a ZVG car been resprayed?
- Find the model plate and read the code. On the caution plate in the engine bay, usually on the bulkhead, next to COLOR. If it says ZVG, the car left the factory in Chiffon Ivory Metallic.
- Check the V5C. For Chiffon Ivory Metallic it should say BEIGE, CREAM, GOLD, BROWN or WHITE. Add the paint code to our free check and we’ll compare it with the DVLA record for you.
- Check the auction sheet. It should describe the car as beige and usually prints the code. A sheet that says one colour with a code for another means the car was painted before it was sold in Japan. Our auction sheet translator flags that.
- Look for the old colour where a respray rarely reaches: the engine bay, door shuts, inside the boot lid and fuel flap, and under rubber seals. Chiffon Ivory Metallic has a metallic finish, so look along each panel at an angle for a change in shade.
