   Half a litre at a guess, you could spray the hole car with around a litre.

   no you couldn't, need around 2-2.5 for full saxo, i know because i paint cars this size all the time
   
   a litre of base will be about right for a vt kit

   remember you'll need roughly the same in clearcoat aswell, you'll need roughly a litre and half-2 litres thinner and some activator aswell
   
   clearcoat is mixed 50/50 with thinners
   
   iirc clear is mixed 3/2/1 with activator and thinners
