Europa Blue.
If you go to a decent painter, they put in the Z5T code in a computerised paint mixing system and the computer tells the painter the exact quantities of whatever shades of paint to mix.
For example: 100 grams of blue, 3 grams of red, 1.2 grams of black, 21 grams of green.
Actually very interesting to see how OEM shades of paint are mixed.

Re: MK3 Paint Code
Sorry I can't remember where you are based and again nowhere do you give any indication but if in gauteng do yourself a favour and go to autopaint centre in centurion. They will firstly base mix it to the manufacturers code and then tailor it to make sure it matches your car perfectly. Had a few done by them recently and they are very good.
