Halfords will make it up if you have the colour code and the name. Got an excellent colour match for my Ruby Red metallic. Not the cheapest, but then neither will the dealers be...

the volvo paint is around £20 for 2 cans , base coat and 2k Lacquer .. your older colour would be a single can so cheaper i would think . Halfords is no longer cheap .
