New to us Audi A3 TDi Sport detail and paint correction

[Chrissyp83]

So our new addition to the driveway needed a good level of paint correction. I didnt take any before pics as according to our wonderful weather persons it was supposed to be raining all day but all in all in 9 hours - not a drop.

Anyway 2.0 tdi Sport 140bhp, 60k from new, 1 owner from new, full audi history until last service where it went to a highly regarded German specialist.

Very very well specced and it goes very well!

Anyway we had some issues with the dealer so we only got it back yesterday and today I spent 9 hours on it, it isnt perfect but the paint has reacted well but there is still room to improve.
