  3. Try Autopaints in St Helens. They'll mix cans of 2-pack to VW colour codes for not very much. They do mail order.

    Be aware that your paint may have faded over the years, so might not match the original code.

    They seemed reasonable. Mail order too.

    Was the Halfords paint mixed to a code? If not go back and get a can or two mixed. Orange is a wierd one. WhenI've painted it before it seems to need more coats than other colours.
