The garage is basically at the bottom of my estate! He drinks in the same bar as me (but later on, when i am tucked up in bed) He was recommended and it was local so.....
I can only learn from experience :)
the only time I have had paint jobs in the past was to repair slightly bigger dints I had put in cars due to my own stupidity.
This is a first in 40+ years of car ownership and <40 cars too!
As I said..... price to be negotiated on completion :(

A bit too much for my taste thanks. Nick280 had a red 205 that he castrolised but he sold it on to a lad from Teeside way I think.
I'm just looking for something a bit less obvious but subbtle :)

I used to love my old ST202 with OZ wheels and decals, you could do something similar...

Thats's the sort of thing!
Need a note on the bonnet front....'do NOT push'.
Need a note on each side of the bonnet ...'do NOT sit here' :)
Then a note of my blood group (Replenish with Exibition) on the drivers door :) and one on the passenger door....'enter at own risk' Ha!..........
Actuallllllly that's not a bad set of ideas!!!!!

:) never drank the 'moon juice' since I was a teenager (nearly said teetotaler!) Good old Ex is my favorite.
Never have a chance to drink too much now, what with being a 'house husband etc etc!!!
Got to go and pick the working lady up soon :) she pays the ferryman....????
