Re: 2.8 orinoco
We bought our 2.8 in Aug 2010 for £4200 and it was a struggle to get the seller to drop from £4500.
Our 1.9 we bought in May 2012 for £2100 mainly for the hardtop and fitting kit.
Our other 1.9 we won at auction in April this year for £930, the seller didn't realise what he was selling

Re: 2.8 orinoco
I have heard rumours that there were only 300 of this colour manufactured but have never been able to find the evidence to prove so
They were manufactured for one year only 1998 - 1999 in engines 1.9 and 2.8
For ref. old paint code #406, new paint code #560

Hi Orinoco
Are the fog light plastic covers to fit your 2.8, if so I think you will find the 1.9 are a different size, larger.

Hi,
As yours is the fiji green manufactured same year as ours you may find your paint code may have changed.
We have the orinoco green and sourced ours online from paints4u they also gave us the new paint code old 406 new 560
might be worth a look.
