There's nothing wrong with respraying a car if it's done right and for the right reasons and a bare metal respray with a photographic record of the works is fine...... but a quick blow over to hide rust is a mare and won't last 5 minutes. Personally, if a car needs new paint, I'd rather buy it as it is and get it sprayed myself... at least then I know that its done right and not hiding anything horrible.
aye that is very true ian. there was a red s3 on gumtree near me for £1500, ford pinto engine though, but the guy had resprayed the car so its like you say you don't know what lurks under the shiney paint job unless there was a photographic record of what it looked like before and good close up pics too.
but for £4000 there would need to be a legit reason, it'll never sell at that though.
