Phoning a dealer is probably your quickest route.

Try:

Bell & Colvill PLC
Epsom Road - West Horsley - Near Leatherhead - Surrey - KT24 6DG - UK
Tel +44 (0)1483 281000 Fax +44(0)1483 281999

They will definitely know. Phonig lotus is a PITA.

Then again Steve W does body repairs and he will also know.

Cheers guys tried B&C and have no listing for Blue Mica but they did say it should be on the Production Number Plate on the inside of the car...mmm did check that yesterday will have to look again.

P.S. Thanks for the list of paint codes...took a bit of time to go through it...saved it to my desktop for future reference...mind you I couldn't find it on there either, will try a couple of other dealers and SW.

You know I think you might be right, always thought it looked like the Ford Blue even in a conversation yesterday I said to one of my college's it looked like the Ford ST/RS blue...forgive my naivety! Think I'll leave out the Ford bit when asked

Stick your head in the drivers side door (or right hand side door if its LHD) and look at the sticker stuck on the inside of the sill. It has the paint code for your car there just to be sure.

I have an Azure touchup stick if anyone wants it? And if I can find it!
Dunno on condition, it was used a bit by the previous owner, but never by me.
Free if you want it...

Just reading your post again Stuart...always speed read things and miss things out!! And realised you posted two codes.

By my reconing even thought the colour looks like the Ford colour, the safest bet is the Blue Mica Pearl at the bottom of the list as its listed next too the Silver Mica Pearl...both of which where the two colours released for that/my generation of 03/03 S2 135R i.e. they did a run a run of 100 cars only in these colours 50 in the blue and 50 in the silver and as the plate on the side of the bath tub says blue mica pearl...but no code, and the silver is next to the blue in the list, this must be the one.

I'll give my paint guy the codes anyway...seeing as its only a small touch up pot he's doing for free for me, if its wrong I'll soon know!!!!and so will you guys when I post a note on here ranting at my stupidity

BTW thanks for the offer of free touch up, I might take you up on that if its the wrong colour.

Guys once again thanks for the help, can't believe the help you get on here, good community.

Laters Slaters,

Charlie.
