I wouldnt worry too much, people will buy the car and get it resprayed to their liking, thats not a problem. the HPI check may be incorrect, so compare it against the car you are looking to buy. Best thing to do is pop the bonnet, if you look on the underside of the bonnet, or on the sills of some of the other body panels, you could well see if their has been a respray, as you may see the original colour underneath. If I had the money, there have been a few occassions I have thought of spraying the car. as long as the DVLA are aware, its on the V5 and the insurance companies are aware, there is certainly nothing wrong with it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
