3.5 to 4k, are you sure about this, even flecked effect paint is only about £150 per litre....ok so they'd have to make a colour up but surely if it required about 7 litres to respray the scoob, thats a staggering £571 a litre, drive up to beds and me grandad who is a dab hand with the duluxe paint mixer at DO IT ALL where he works will make you up something,....however like normal diy stuff, expect it to flake and bubble about 3 weeks after it's been applied !

I think it's a damned cheek. Why not try selling Big Issue and see how you get on?

I was quoted today between 3.5 and 4k. Well worth it..
Are you kidding me!? A complete respray should not be over £2k.


John Felstead: a million is out of my reach, but next time you come to see the rally or if we meet on the ring, I get you a beer (containes oetrogens, will calm you down ). Surely that would be a step in the right direction?

Exclamation

Shifting into first I rolled her down the slight incline of our drive way and out onto the road… staying in second I edged toward the main road. .... The road was clear and I put my foot down… I was not; repeat NOT, ready for the instant acceleration. I cruised up to the dual carriageway and applied a little more gas. Woooooooosh! Head hit the headrest and I launched up the outside lane like a rocket.
Please read all the posts about warming up your turbo correctly or your pink car won't last very long

Also want to get as many miles per gallon as possible.

I got that quote from Dawsons of Wimborne. Bear in mind, my pink sparkly helmet cost me £150 to have that sprayed and that is small.

I met a guy with an old shape scooby at a meet and he had his sprayed purple and that cost him £4k... that was nice but not girly enough for me

Andrew.. It's not a damn cheek - you can take it or leave it... not like taxes
