Thanks for the sample file. I didn't find a way or a different app that could keep the colours intact when exporting to dxf. I understand it would be a tedious task to change lines to different colour or layer manually, with such a complex drawing.

I had one idea for a workaround. If it's possible in FreeCAD, you could make a dxf with hidden lines shown and one with only the visible lines, with the same position. Open the first in LibreCAD, then import the second on an extra layer, lying exactly upon the other, maybe giving it a slightly larger line thickness to cover the one beneath. Choose colours, and use the Order commands if necessary.
For the importing operation you may use copy and paste from one drawing into the other.
