Default anyone help in decoding this??

Attached is the decal/sticker on the drivers door post on my 2015 MY V70. I tried once before to decode these numbers and other than the obvious answers got no where. I tried web searches using "decode", "marked" ( a vida word) "certification" but ended up in blind alleys or details of how to decode the VIN.
I did recognise "711" as bright silver paint code but the "16" is supposed to be a secondary exterior colour which could just be laquor as several paint code are nnn-16 and volvo do laquor their metalic paints. I blanked part of my VIN as I've read they should not be shared. Don't know why, but that's another question
Any help appreciated.

Cheers
Bob

Don't know about the rest but the two digits after the 711 paint colour are the Manufacturer ( 1 used to be BASF ) and the paint type ( 6 used to be water based Solid/Metallic/Pearl + 2 component Varnish )

I have a sheet to decode 740's and 940's but not sure on the modern cars.

Your main dealer should be able to tell you though
