This is what Nick's page dealing with this model has to say:

The Citroen can be found painted in one of two distinct shades.
Either it was painted in a rather dull pale yellow or a much brighter orange yellow and it had silver trim applied to the headlights, front bumper and grille, rear bumper and rear grille.


I know I have more than two shades in my own collection, but they are difficult to distinguish clearly. Besides there are examples without any silver trim at all.

In these pictures, I have to say, I do not see a significant colour difference, but I suppose it is more obvious in reality.

A little blurry, but I have what looks like distinctly different shades:

As Christian already said and we have discussed it two years ago, there are more shades, perhaps the basic shades could be described as:
a) pale yellow
b) yellow
c) orange-yellow
