its easier to view it from bonnet.. open it up and look at the right hand (passenger) suspension Strut.. should be in black around the top smileys/happy.gif should be about 5 letters & numbers :O

Eg : - : Ejx9l / Ejx / EjxL / Ejx/R Ejx/Y which is Rouge Furio ;-) Halfords comes in useful sometimes

Mine is EjxBr.. which if you look at the list above falls in under Ejz/r smileys/happy.gif

thats the code ;-)

I thought you could also tell from a number that is displayed on the lower left of the windscreen... Or maybe i'm confusing it with the one on the susp strut!

Mine is on the windscreen so even easier to see!

Mark: Yes we can make up colours aslong as you supply them with the paintcode.. just use the computer and then it gives us instructions to make it up.

Dan: Did you pick a can up off the shelf , or did one of the staff make it up for you? If it was off the shelf, you may have not used the right primer or lacquer. If it was made up, you may have had a new member of staff make it who didnt know how to use the paint machine! LOL

Saxo864: By any chance is your car the colour of the one below?? If so that colour is called Posiedon Blue
