As I was driving to B&Q in the tin top in the warm sunshine (it's t-shirt weather outside here) I was cursing the Locost's current
state and thinking it'd be nice to come down in it to visit the Brighton Teddy Bear Emporium! :p

Come on down and visit the now very orange Stylus - more interesting than bears - that's for sure.....
BTW - you got a Sierra steering wheel horn cover bit (or whole wheel) I could borrow?

One or possibly even two if you want dual steering! 
Although I think the 2nd is actually ChrisW's that he lent me about 5 years ago!
Looking forward to seeing the Stylus very much!
Cheers,
James

If its really bad the use some >1500 grit wet and dry first.
Okay.... well I'm almost ready to declare Dave a genius for all time and my saviour..... and have his babies! 
Had to start with 120grit, then went to 400 and now on 1500 which was all I could get at Halfords.
It's now much improved.... looks like I've sprayed it with the spray on Frosting! In fact, when it;s wet, it looks almost perfect!
Where does one get >1500 grit from?
Motor Factors didn't have it.
Cheers,
James

Just keep the lawn sprinkler trained on it then - sorted!
