someone had to do it

Yes mate, they have a contract with them so can only use Glasurit, Took alot of time finding a paint which was 99.5% close to the original. The only issue was that the paint codes mean nothing here and the car we had to compare to was my dads 500, and as that has more than likely faded over the years made it very difficult to match but got there in the end

Hows your car coming along mate?

... haven't touched the car all year

! Although it had daily driver duties whist I fixed my TX3 Turbo

.

We've done a big house reno and extension (at least I have a garage now) and this has taken ALL my time.

I'll give her a good clean (and hopefully a service) and drag it out for SFS

. Kash coming?

Keep up the good work mate ... it'll be a ripper when its done.
