219 is the standard Volvo colour ;) The 5 does stand for something, I can't remember if it's shade of 219, or if it's interior or somesuch... think it's in the green books.

Reason I say it is 219 on a mk2/early mk3 never looks the same as a late mk3, Fake is 219 and I'd say your's is a different colour from the pics.

Yeah my 360 is 184-5 I used the same website about a week ago to find my paint code, had the paint mixed up yesterday - looked the right colour in the mixing cup :) It's a handy website. :D Paint sprayer says the - or . then 5 means nothing to him so it must be Volvo related as Chris suggests above.

I found on another website that the -5 means shade of the colour and 5 being darkest and 1 being lightest but mine seems lighter than kar in my eyes, anyway all is well paint place said the 5 bit does matter to them so got a few cans made up. Let the spraying commence

Oh right :) thanks for letting us know what the 5 was all about - apparently there was only "standard shade" option with my colour code according to both paint suppliers local to me. Can't wait to try the paint out, just hope it matches!

Hope your wings turn out well too :)

Matt.
