Re: Polo Paint codes
If you've got the sticker in the wheel well is should list paint code which you can then look up.
I think VW had a couple of different shades of one of the silvers with the same name.

Re: Polo Paint codes
My mates gti is satin silver. It's a W reg and is deffinatly yellow compared to my blueish/purplish paint. As already mentioned you can find the code in your wheel well. But also your service book, as well as looking your VIN number up at VW
Reflex is LA7W should be something like (off the top of my head)
And satin is LB7Z or something like that. - but don't hold me to it

Faded/peeling lacquer red is the way forward Philip and you know it
