Thanks for your input.

I can't seem to 100 percent confirm it.

there are literally 5 colours of blue that i like. most of them are much lighter like olympic blue however when you google any of the names colours they seem to come up with various degrees of shades. i think in a few cases its the lighting but in the majority its people not knowing the correct colour. although on a colour card so many are similar but dramatically different on the vehicle.

i think im going to have to get some spray cans in the colours and put them on and see from there.

thankyou for your help

looks very similar to QLH which came up when I searched for Fiord blue for my Mk1 which is actually code CE or at least the paint made up as CE matched and isnt a million miles from olympic either!
