Not a paint guru but I came across **this site** on my travels and thought it might be of use to you. They have an 'Island Blue' listed, whether it's the I.B you're looking for is another matter though.

Best of British!

But then I wouldn't go choosing a colour for your car based on something you see on a computer. Each computers display settings and different monitors, and the conditions in which the photo was taken will change the colour slightly, so you probably won't end up with exactly the colour you want!

Yeah, good point! your best bet is to just go to your local paint shop and look through their swatches! that's what I did for my old clubby!

It should be enough just to give them the paint code from the VIN plate
