Not a Reimo by any chance? They are always light blue (except for ours which we repainted grey! :lol: ).

Don‘t even think about it! That is proper (not badger friendly) paint, not cheap ebay stuff. Thinking about how much it costs makes my eyes water!

What does Matt's van need doing that requires expensive paint?

They are all in range of my welding torch :D
The blue paint I have used on Baz so far is the same 'mix' as used on the Mk3, going to need some more soon :shock:

Looking forward to Baz coming into range of your camera again! Give those who need their vans for work priority over Baz though.

You keep calling me tighter than a ducks a******e?

It's just the paint the local supplier uses (The paint/primer on Nadjenkas van that I painted last year cost just over £450!!!)
