Funnily enough alex j my missus has given the nickname "smurf"
I was under influence it could of been miami blue but now im thinking otherwise :/ .. Originally it was red but wasnt told by mate what new colour code was, as he got it after colour was done.
Would my best bet be to take part (ie reg plate light case) into a paint shop see if it can be matched ?

that would be the best bet as i think it is definatly a custom made cour
Looks like a old school Porsche colour imo

I don't think its olympic blue, my mate has an escort in that colour and it's whiter/more pale that that
Take a sample to a paint shop. You won't get a good match from people's comments from a picture as the colour will never be realistic enough.

Ahhh well, ill find its match soon when I get day off work nd money to go store

It looks on the picture similar to this VW Beetle, but I'd just take the car to a paint shop to get colour matched:
Also check the below picture for the colour code CLICKYME (http://paintref.com/cgi-bin/colorcodedisplay.cgi?type=sample&ditzler=2579&syear=1974&smanuf=Volkswagen&smodel=Beetle&sname=Olympic%20Blue&name=beetle19742579&scomm=)
