Just one teeny bit of paint to do on nearside rear lower wing and that's it.

Total cost £505 all in.

That looks cracking - you do know how to clean a car up, Brad.

Not for sale but I know your question was tongue in cheek. It's worth what it has cost me, I guess. Around 500 quid. I am buying back another T reg KV6 Coupe that I sold a few years ago. Low miles blah blah for 350. They still aren't worth anything really. There is more value in owning/selling an 827 car

It's patience. Don't forget it has taken over a year to get to this end result with an hour here and there. It's much easier to do this sort of thing when it's not your main car and you've got undercover facilities. But thanks anyway :D

That looks really nice, I know I've decided on a 220 GTi, but I think I should try and find a nice coupe sometime soon.

The buckets are now safely stored away where the plebs can find them easily. Hanging on me bicycle handlebars.
