How much for an S1/S2 colour change these days? Most likely to black.

Thanks
Cad

Decent job I'd guess around £1500 - £2000 ? Are you happy to have the under bonnet bits left original colour, imagine its a right pain to mask up or remove all the bits on the bulkhead ?

Maybe save a bit doing some of the stripping out / refitting yourself ?

But why black ? its a sports car not a hearse !!!

At that price I think I'll just wait till the right one comes along. Won't bother too much about exact colour now, just condition.

Thanks for your input chaps.

Just don't think black suits little sports cars be they TVRs MGs Mazdas or whatever, maybe ok on the odd Lambo or similar exotica but if Black "rocks your boat" I hope you find one !
Whatever colour they are they are great little cars thumbup

Here's a couple of photos of mine to wet you apatite. Guess I'm probably a bit biased in colour choice though.

I'm currently getting mine fully resprayed and it's coming in much less than 3.5K - although I've stripped a lot of it down myself. If you want details, drop me a PM
