i have an octavia estate y reg (2001?) its metallic gold does anyone know best place to get touch up pen from? and colour code? code doesnt make sense on car

Welcome to Briskoda chrisski.

Try your local dealer, ebay or halfords.

Give the search a go on here for the colour code.

Skoda would be the best place, it will be Golden Bronze metallic and the 4 digit paint code can be found on the data sticker, one copy will be on the inside cover of the service book and the other will be stuck to the boot floor under the boot carpet.

halfords only do white silver or black! skodas website says its Atacama Beige Metallic! dealer said its gold but im going to the dealer to check!

The Skoda accessories site might help....

I got one free from my local Skoda dealer
