I thought our van was VW Pastel White but find Halfords VW Alpine White a better match so assume it has been resprayed at some point.
Alpine white is 'cooler' than pastel white.
Can't really tell but yours looks a lot like ours.

Re: Pastel White L90D?
The front half of my van has never been painted and i have to say Halfords L90D is a perfect match as I have resprayed the Barge Boards.

My paint factors (Ketts) list two pastel white. L90D and L90D Light. My van has the original paintwork and the 'Light' version matches perfectly, standard L90D is too 'cream'.

Interesting, there are 2 listed.
I have spoken to a local body-paint supplier and they have a paint match service & spectrometer, so hopefully that will tell me the exact colour code as well!

Re: Pastel White L90D?
I'd be interested to know what it costs. I spoke to our nearest supplier and they talked about minimum orders of cans based on 1 litre mixed etc etc. Looked like it was going to cost the best part of £100.
I suspect they really didn't want the business.

Re: Pastel White L90D?
Ketts provide it in a spray can or by the litre. A spray can costs about £14 but they are far superior to the spray cans sold by Halfords, etc. I would imagine other paint factors offer a similar service.
