Obviously I was a bit surprised when I went to collect Dafny to find she was yellow when I had ordered a green car!
The Vauxhall configurator shows limelight green as a pale pastel green as shown here:
Dafny actually looks like this:

Basically nothing like green, nothing like the configurator but equally not as dark a yellow as 'flaming yellow' which is the only other yellow paint option. So I double checked with the dealer and they claimed this is definitely limelight green. I was a bit annoyed at how the configurator could be so misleading but thankfully my wife and I both love Dafnys colour and actually prefer it to the green anyway.
HOWEVER today I found this video which claims to show a limelight green Corsa E. It looks green not yellow, it looks alot closer to the configurator colour too.
So is Dafny another colour entirely that is not listed or is this yet another internal problem, like the wrong engine codes, that means the documentation /website is not accurate to what the factory makes or does this mean limelight green in the UK is not the same as limelight green in the rest of Europe???
Or am I colour blind?? The one in the video definately looks green whereas Dafny looks yellow. I assume you lot see the same as me?
