Looked a state on Saturday, covered in shit haha.
Sorry didn't really chat more, I'm not the most talkative person, and me and the mrs had an argument on way up. So was still bit pissed off haha!
Was that your car or your dad's?

No worries I kinda got the vibes!
Doesn't matter is its covered in shite it's a mean looking car! Love the fact that the attention to detail is there and it's not a looks good in pictures and not in real life car!
The Capri is dads really, but I do all the work on it and get to drive it too! Not when the bastard thing cuts out when you reverse though he gets the right arse when I get a bit angry at it lol.

It's pretty much as he bought it, 19k from new so I've just kept it good really, servicing etc.
Needs the rear quarters spraying as the previous owner had them done in the wrong colour!

Thank you both very much! I think quite a few people changed their opinion after seeig it over the weekend.
Unfortunately on te journey there, I was pulled over by police twice within 2 miles. Was regarding the front plate, got a ticket from first officers (one of which the plan was a complete bitch) then explained to second set of police that I'd already been ticketed. Have to wait 28 days for outcome, probably £100 fine.
So, at the show I bought this
Hopefully keep them off my back, even if it's not full legal. First officer was telling me, only reason I modified my car was so I didn't have to have a plate :/ even though was in the window.
Anyway, few more pics
Some new plates keep po po happy
Bought this
