Coral Blue & Chagall Blue are one & the same, IIRC Chagall is the 'european' name.

Go to Vauxhall, give them your reg then they will get you the correct pen. If they can not find it through your reg, ask them to have a look for Coral Blue. Easy.

When I bought my car from Vauxhall in 2004 I asked parts for a touch-up stick for Coral Blue. In the end they traced it under the name "Chagall blue mica". I've still the box which gives a code number on it of L119 and also what looks like a Vauxhall part no of 93160990.
Hope this helps.

The original bill of sale for my car stated it was Rabiata Red. In my ingorance I assumed this was correct. I bought a hard top in Rabiata and then realized I was dealing with Vauxhall sales people and I should not have expected the bill of sale to be correct.
My point being, some of the people who work at the dealers are hopeless don't assume they can help you.

Just looked at my touch up paint, bought from the local Vauxhall dealer, and it is a two part, body colour and clear laquer, exactly as described by the previous answer.
Chagall blue mica, L119/L119 P/NO 93160990. Luckily only needed it once for a small scratch on the rear spoiler and it is a perfect match for my coral blue tubby.
Buy with confidence, and buy from your local friendly Vauxhall dealer.

When I got my touch up paint I was told it was actually an Opel colour code.
That may help when trying to track it down.

Getting some made up -for touch up purposes. There is a guy local to me who does all sorts of plastics parts and spraying. He used to work for TVR and Marcos, he looked it up on his paint data base.
It was only listed under Opel and not Vauxhall.
Just gave him the paint code 3VU and it tells you the make up and amounts of each constituent.
Seemed to be 6 or 7 constituents, he said it seemed quite a complicated mix.
Very impressed with his knowledge.

V5's normally just say "blue"
Cant remember seeing one that states the actual manufacturers colour name, You sure you mean the V5?
I suppose its down to how the dealer filled out the "new vehicle registraion document application"
