so you had it sprayed, a total colour change which is by no means cheap and then sold it 2 days later for what? the cost of the paint job more than likely!

either your talking crap, or your plain stupid.

The MG ZR, i declared me engine change, my insurance went up to 2750, then the insurance sent someone out to inspect my car after being pulled by police, insurance went up to 3250 after he declared all my mods, then wen i had paint job done, they told me it was gonna cost 4300 to insure.... The paint was done cheap by a friend (350 for paint and 100 quid labour)
