the larger Halfords can mix paint for you, touch-ups or
tins. No Haynes manuals available for Scoobs - workshop ones
cost several hundreds of pounds

You can get proper Subaru touch up paints from any Subaru dealer. Cost me nearly 10 quid for a piddly pot though!

Workshop manuals actually cost around £60 and are available on CD-ROM for Subaru dealers. J

Brown Brothers also have a paint mixing service for aerosol cans. Seems to be a good match.

Mick,

Think it's called Partco, they have branches all over, they can mix paint, too. Do a search and go with a recommendation 'cos some places aren't that good at getting the right colour.
