Had a discussion with Steve on FB page who assured me LEs are in fact not metallic
I could be wrong and happy to correct myself, I even checked details on the buyers guide and of course have seen a fair share of them over the years...

So LE black - metallic or not?

Thanks all

They call black LE's Solid black so there's no metalic in that paint code.

The only metalic black in the Coupe models is the 16v models, Ink black isn't black but it does have metalic.
