I passed it on the m25 between j27-28 clockwise, it passed me again in the rain and pulled in and there was so much water coming off those monster wheels i had to pull out again. :) Great car! I was in my white zed Anyone on here???

Respray?
I am an ameture sprayer and i'm just in the process of painting a p100. I have a 50l hoddy compressor which cant really keep up so when I painted it I did a panel at a time and had to wait for it to charge with air. You'll need a big compressor to paint properly. I spent approx £500 on equipment and read about half a dozen books prior to practicing it. The biggest problem to overcome is getting that ULTRA smooth surface as well as mastering the process and also knowing the paint. Paint suppliers are good with the knowledge on that so call them, listern good and write notes! Reading this thread i'd not take offense of the advise given at all. I kinda seems off putting even though its not meant that way. I think if you do have time on your hands and you are genuinly interested in paint start small on bumpers etc in a garage and read/practice until you get a good job. It will take time. you need to get some kind of extraction going too but there is more to learn than is contained here and there's no quick way. You'll possibly spend more/as much as a blow over cost in practice. Good luck
