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.

Some say when a Mini doesn't start another is in danger from being scrapped - My boss said this to me the other day :')

That's cool. Did you take it through a McDonalds drive through to totally freak the staff out? :-)

Black Capri with kangaroo fuel in the garden centre today. Not good to have a huge black bonnet in this weather.
