Title: Platinum silver paint code T8S. Anyone got it?
Post by: cruiserfied on February 28, 2016, 13:35:04

Been trying to see how close to the outgoing Sleek Silver the incoming Platinum Silver is but cant find any good pictures that i can trust to be correct.

The paint code is T8S. The e-brochure shows it as Hatch only. Same name silver has a different code in the Tourer.

Had a look around the Hyundai yard last week but think they were all Sleek Silver.

Looking for for closeup shots to see the level of metallic and just some general shots in the sun.

Cheers, Tim.

The new platinum looks very similar to the sleek silver, possibly the same with just a name change I'm thinking :undecided:

I had another look around the car yard and it turns out the I30 i was looking at, loving the colour, i thought was Sleek was actually Platinum. So i had one under my nose the whole time  :crazy2: :crazy2: :crazy2:
