Question - how much paint will I need to paint a mini (inside and out), dove grey if that makes a difference! No work or labour added on, just paint amount roughly (and cost?) :)

I've painted 2 mini's in cellulose and took 5L each with having about 1/2L left for touch ups. That was full car, inside, engine bay etc.
