Other Toyota models outside our model library used 040 too.

In Toyota’s own catalogue

Toyota’s own listings name the colour (スーパーホワイトII) but not the code, so they confirm the model offered it. These are the grades we checked:

Has a 040 car been resprayed?

  1. Find the model plate and read the code. On the manufacturer’s plate in the engine bay, usually on the bulkhead or a front strut top. It’s printed with the trim code as COLOR/TRIM (C/TR): in 040/FB20 the paint code is 040. If it says 040, the car left the factory in Super White II.
  2. Check the V5C. For Super White II it should say WHITE or CREAM. Add the paint code to our free check and we’ll compare it with the DVLA record for you.
  3. Check the auction sheet. It should describe the car as white 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.
  4. 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.

Questions

What colour is Toyota paint code 040?

040 is Super White II (スーパーホワイトII), a solid white paint.

What colour should the V5C say for a car in 040?

The DVLA records a basic colour, not the paint name, so a car still in its factory Super White II should be registered as WHITE or CREAM. Anything else suggests it has been painted a new colour, and the keeper should have told the DVLA.
