Later model Land Rovers paint codes are on the drivers door jamb. Older models are typically under the front hood on the radiator support. Not the easiest to find, but once you know the color code format, it is not too difficult.
The typical color code format is:
LRC961/HAF
which corresponds to:
LRC961/HAF Epsom Green Clearcoat
You may see either LRC961 or HAF. Both refer to the same color.
Same Color Code, Different Name
Land Rover, like all manufacturers, uses the exact same color across many
models and then will have a different color name for each model. It's the
same paint! This is why the color code is so important to order
the correct paint.
For example, LRC961/HAF, above we call Epsom Green Clearcoat . It could also be called Freen Clearcoat, Light Mist Clearcoat, etc. depending on what the marketing department decided to call it.
