Hmm i think you bought that to help feed your new obsession of detailing  :cool: , it does have that RedRobin hue  :evil:
Are you going to use the new one for work  :undecided:  :smiley:

That was also the first thing I thought too, but unlike RR's, which in real life (and Horney's pics) looks great, this on in the flesh needs a proper going over with the megs G220 polisher.  :smiley:

Get rid of it before it breaks down, even if it carries on working, it will also be damn hard work on VW paint. Get yourself a rotary, they are soooo much better. You have to be careful and keep it moving so the paint doesn't get hot, but what fantastic resuts in a lot less time.

My Megs is just fine  :tongue: (it's one of the new batch anyway) but for the future a rotary will be on the list.  :smiley:

It varies (from what I've seen) anywhere from £750 - £1500.

Good find :cool:

Are you going to do an iriginal style renovation or a smoothed lowered look?

I think original but lowered to start with.  :tongue:

Not sure what to do with the wheels though????  :undecided:

....I've developed an unhealthy interest in the new S3 Sportback - What did you think of the S3 you drove?
