Great Site Des,

Thistle green appears as Silberdistel - code 881.

You would need to have two cars side by side to pick the difference

I have contacted a German friend of mine and asked for a translation of Siberdistel.

She says that a (eine) Distel is a type of cactus - grey-green in colour.

Silberdistel translates as a light silver green colour.

Distel is not the word for thistle, but I guess Cactus green sounds pretty Kakky.

FWIW
