The 433 = Blackberry pearl and was not only availible for the S/V90. It also came for the later editions 940’s
[…] Interior color codes on 1990s-2010s Volvos so you can replace the interior, or find touch-up paint to fix seats and trim. If you’re looking for exterior paint codes, see A List of Volvo Paint Colors and Their Codes. […]
