I am considering making an offer for a 2003 1.6 FSI sport 'pelican blue' Audi A2 on Autotrader (see link below). It is a colour I have never seen before on the A2, but is very attractive. I contacted Audi UK, to check it was an official Audi colour, and their response:
Dear Mr F,
I just wanted to let you know that after investigation, 'Pelican Blue' does not appear to be an 'Audi Colour.'
This suggests that the vehicle you saw was re-sprayed outside of the Audi network.

The owner has however stated 'The car is the original colour, yes it is rare and was not done for long in that colour, it is not resprayed.'
They are the second owners of the car, so they may be unaware if it was resprayed. Who is right? Have you ever seen a 'pelican blue' A2 before?!
