    When you say you like "genuine VW colours" are you referring to colours
    from new models out now or from the original model colour scheme.

    a case can be argued for either.

    I have fully resprayed 3 cars.

    1. The 16v Mk1 which went oak green, which was a 16v Mk2 colour.
    2. The Mk1 GTI which stayed original Diamond Silver Metallic
    3. The scirocco 20VT ??

    The Rocco has a later model motor, so anything is allowable.

    I`m leaning toward the green at the mo.

    Candy White could look pretty good. As for the engine bay, it depends - how much effort is it really to drop it for the splash of paint Matt? It may be worth the half day for the end result.
