Only thing I would say about that, is you can get a gen log book car for not a massive amount more. Would make it alot easier when you come to sell

You should paint it then see if it changes your mind, you will get your money back on it anyway if it doesn't I would like to think?

not sure, not too many for sale to compare at the moment, I think there is a bigger gap now between the good and bad cars
