Yep... it's that condensation coming in off the Atlantic, when the gulf stream evaporation meets cold land. -Green, green green!

My friend had a white MkIII Capri, but it was a pit. -In the end we chopped the roof off, painted it "Blues-Brothers-Cop-Car" colours, and ragged it. -It was known as "the beast"!

Damn, I want a painted hoop spoiler! -I also LOVE the UK/Euro front bumpers and rear quarters... the Euro front quarter with side repeater signal... not so much... but the clear-on-white makes it a bit more palatable!

Oh yeah... -isn't that Capri strictly speaking TOO NEW for silver-on-black plates to be 100% legal? -Or are the rules different south of the border?

Hi keith - The capri is fine to run with those plates. Anything that was registered after Jan 1st 1991 must comply with EU style lincense plates.. i.e ( white background and black letters).

Thanks Michelle! Actually, the "Euro" look is the same as the ROW. Its the poor old N.American cars that got saddled with the big rear bumber and those side markers.
