Have you tried the vin plate in the boot?

The code is a 4 letter code such as CEGR, which is Provance Blue.

most the blue phase 1 306's are china blue but there are a few sigmas knocking about. the others arent normally found on the 306. A trip to halfords to compare the paint can lids will soon help you.

Greg,

Seems I was having a go at you I wasn't, I took a call mid-post and was being a little sarcy in a non-moderating way at the OP !

No offence taken PU, I just felt a bit embarassed that I'd completely ignored a very useful link and gone off into Google-land to find the answer myself!
