New paint job
After 8 years of ownership I finally decided to have some of the car repainted. Have been wanting to keep it original, but any closer than 2-3 metres away and the paintwork was pretty shabby. Scratches, blemishes, nicks, places where the clear coat was wearing through due to excessive polishing trying to improve it I'm very happy with the finished product. Has made a world of difference.

Re: New paint job
Fantastic job, garage looks pristine as well. Are you a surgeon perhaps?

Re: New paint job
Haha yes, I'll admit I'm a neat freak, and also not much of a handyman or mechanic, so the garage is not used as a workshop. Cheeky, but I can take it on the chin
