My new TR Mk4 R32.

Ah fair enough :)

it's costing me £550 to paint and blend one wing in and do a couple of small rub strips lol
 
Maybe I'm being a bit thick here, or missed something in the 15 pages or so, but why have you bought a car in showroom condition, then resprayed it?

Because I can. ;)

When you have a car a few weeks/months, you start to notice things. Scratches and lacquer peel on the roof and after a few motorway runs, I picked up some nasty stone chips. At the end of the day, the car is 10 years old and I've just freshened it right up.

Heard a black one burble passed me the other day. Sounded superb. S3 has nothing on them for sound, that's for sure, even with a massive chav filter!

It's all about that weird non-V (but still a V) noise
 
Received this pic, late on last night.

Looking fresh mate. Is it being detailed after the bodywork's completed.

To reinforce Gary's point about, this car is over ten years old, you've got to remember that...It is certainly one of the lowest mileage R32's in the UK with a full VWSH...That's what makes it special...The Bodywork and cosmetics needed addressed. (Not sure why i feel the need to defend the car...but that's the case!)
 
It's not like he's spending money to throw it into a black hole, it just increases it's value. Mental.

That looks super glossy Gaz, need to speak to about the wheel guy as we're looking for a good one.

On top of this, the car's mechanically PERFECT!! Unbelievable how well it's been cared for, in that respect.
 
Got my private plate on!

Got a Touran rear wiper arm to fit and some LED sidelights and as far as I'm concerned, it's finished.
