In your service manual, and in the boot, under the carpet, there is a data sticker with things like the VIN code, engine code, model name and code and paint code on it. One is shown in the thread below:

The paint code is the one beginning with L just above section 4 (all the three-character option codes).

The data sheet above shows a paint code of L S1H. This car was painted OVNI Yellow (S1H) at the factory.

Platinum Grey is S7U

This is the Seat Toledo paint codes table guide. I think your car is Shadow Grey H2 S7U.
But check the label in your trunk.

Like i have noticed with a lot of Seat owners, the sticker under carpet in the boot/ inside the spare wheel well / inside the rim of spare wheel is non existant. Also the page in the service book was not filled in. I got a tester of platinum grey S7U and it looks damn close, i just wanted a second opinion

Zito 'hyperspeed' 18 inch. I also painted my brake calipers gold, finishes it off nice.
Would recommend painting these. Brake dust comes of so easy now. used a wire brush to get the dust off at first. Now it pretty much falls off with a hose down
