It will be 2 different shades at a guess mate

FORD EUROPE JEWEL VIOLET PEARL L/XSC2741CM 1993 - METALLIC is probably a lighter shade

FORD EUROPE JEWEL VIOLET PEARL XSC2741C 1993 - METALLIC i would imagine is standard shade

Just a guess really based on the codes. I'll have a proper look tomorrow at work if i get chance.

I've had a look today but we've got a standard and dark shade on our system. But unfortunately no XSC codes to cross reference to.

I got the book out and had a look though and XSC2741 is jewel violet so thats the one. But that lists no varients. And as Paul said the code on the car should be T4, although the number isn't really that important.

I'd go with standard shade anyway even if they do list others where you get it from.
