Halfords prob won't stock it on the shelf, but they can mix it for you. Alternatively there are several internet based paint firms that can mix them up and post to you for a bit less £Â£Ã‚£.

If you only want a rattle can to touch up then pop to your local stealers as they can order the pukka stuff from VW themselves.

vw should be able to supply the right stuff just based on your chassis/reg number
