halfords mixed up paint is bang on, off the shelf not so close!

The color code is in your manual that you get with the car or in your boot or spare wheel i belive, mine is in my boot, stick your head in and look directly down and it should be there.

The service book has the following details on a sticker, which you'll find on the inside front cover;

Vin

Paint Code

Engine Code

Gearbox Code

Trim level/Options
