mega money mate tbh, your bora sounds pretty bad if your thinking of having a full respray, you sure a good bit of paint correction and protection wouldnt sort it or is it that bad?

but if its a respray your after its going to be 3 zero's on the end of your bill for a pukka job.

its just been mistreated thats all.... i'll take some pics tomorrow and see what you think....

cheers

if its just a case of not being washed or even washed badly it can still be bought back up to scratch with a few days work and would cost a fraction of a respray.

i suppose i should post some pictures up of the "worst areas" and see what you think really. i do love washing my car and would love to be able to detail it properly

As Purple Haze said you may be able to get away with paint correction. Some people can even sand the car down and then build the gloss back up. Tis awesome although I wouldn't recommend it if you didn't know what you were doing. 
You'd be amazed at what professional detailers can do. 

I had my mk2 resprayed for about £2700 but that included the arches being rolled and the rust removed. I only went down that route too as the bottom half of the doors were matt blue and pinpricked with area where the paint had blown.

good job im a pro valeter/detailer,

you are correct in saying not to attempt anything like wet sanding if you dont know what your up against, you have to be very carefull because the paint/clearcote isnt the same thickness all over the car.
hopefully when we can see the worst areas of it,can then give better advice on which step to take next.
