Hey Olav, I had a go at converting my S3 to LHD and took some photos... they are at the end of myphotoalbum for you to see the results... no real problems encountered I might convert back to RHD next weekend

Nice set of photos Kevin. Great job you've done on your car! Pic's 2 & 40 are almost from the same position and really show the difference you've made thumbup
How long did it take you?

Cheers Ian, I started during the Christmas hols and have worked one day each weekend since then +/- a few hours here and there... so far the cost of the refurb has been below £600 - the biggest cost being the trailing arm at £202.
I'm aiming to have it back on the road for the second sunday in May (NE Meet)

Hi Olav

I came across this info and remembered your question of a few weeks ago...

Nexa took over ICI Autocolour who used to supply TVR paint. If you give them th body paint code from the plate in the engine bay they will confirm the colour and can tell you where a local supplier is to mix it for you (if there are none in your area, I could have it done for you, in fact it would be interesting to compare your code with mine to see if they are the same )

Nexa Autocolor
Stoke House
Grays Park Road
Stoke Poges
Slough

UK

tel: +44 (0) 1753 611500
fax : +44 (0) 1753 576985

let me know how you get on...
