Looks like a top class job. No doubt we will see more pictures when it's finished and also from Cumbria VAG as there will probably be a few members there.

Looks very good and a great job we are know on our fourth mk 2 and we have know got a alpine white as these are easer to get touched up as the metallic models as the paint is over ten years old you have to paint the whole car to get it to match and we have had two metallic models but funny enough our first model was the same colour so gone back to original Scala i model.Is the colour Alpine white ?chrisme85 wrote:Check the link!!
