no it wouldn't

the TT kit is worth a coupleof hundred quid, only people that want them dont want to spend money (if people wanted to spend money they'd use a different engine ) the rest of the car is just a normal capri missing the roof!

Lol at the turbo technics plate. No way that was fitted to that car by turbo technics. My 6 year old can write better than that.

i've seen a few tt cars with plates like that. i think it depends if tt did the conversion or a tt agent.

The plate on my old tt capri was stamped by ava in Glasgow. It was a hell of a lot nearer than that one!

Shame they've done that to it! Still could have been a nice car if the roof hadnt have been chopped out.
