Does 'MO' mean 'E'?
It's to sort out the sill that was repaired and primed but never painted. The fuel station sells spray cans. Out of the ones for Peugeot, there's a few silver/grey. Just not sure which will be the closest match.
Before being told it's quartz grey, I was guessing either platinum or aluminium silver lol.
Thanks for your help [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES] cheers.

Platinum silver does look similar, I guess.
EYC is quartz grey & EYCC is aluminium silver?

I'm not so sure about the Halfords sprays. I had to use three to do a wing on a MK4 Fiesta, and they are tiny. I can buy a litre of paint from my local car paint place, and they will put it into three large aerosols. Works out a lot cheaper than Halfords sprays, and I know for sure the colour will match. Worth checking out your own local paint place.

Nearest Halfords to me is a 3 and a bit hour round trip. And if the cans are toetee, it's probably not worth it.
To the best of my knowledge, i don't think there's anywhere i can order paint from, just off-the-shelf spray cans from a couple of places locally.

Try express-paints.co.uk they will match paint from your colour (spelt in English not American) code, they do aerosols on mail order I've found them very good.
