Ive bought this polo to trade on,M plate, Paint code LA5T. Painted a new lower bumper section with AutoPaints mixed paint and its miles out.
Much much lighter.
Anyone here have the same colour and can confirm the paint code if not the paint name.

I have a polo this colour as well. I work for a paint supplier and our paint mixer said there is several different shades of it. I need to respray the whole car as its rather rotten, so its not so bad for me! I'll double check that code at work for you tommorrow though.

most paints have different shades as they are made in batches the closest way to get the match is to go off the year of the car and the colour code if you don't have access to any colour chips that show shades as well as colours
if it's lighter chuck a little black in
