Default Coolant question

I need to top up my coolant but don't have my hand book - which coolant do you guys use?

It's currently blue in colour (I know green sometimes fades to blue) - but I'd have thought they'd have used green - 3 year protection

cheers

Don't mix the red and blue/green, it'll turn to sludge.
