My girlfriend just emailed me this link, she thinks its funny. I am not amused!! I know Dian wei is a capri fan like myself, so what do the rest of you think?? I've added video footage of capris and real chav cars for you to look at and help decide.

The Capri is beautiful.

The nearest thing the UK ever got to a Mustang.

I love it and will love it forever.

I prefer Capri Sun.

Anyway,Capri's rule.As someone (like 'Mort) old enough to remember when Capri's were a common sight on the road,the idea of it being a "chav" car is horrible.My brother had at least two some years ago,a red one and a silver one.Great cars,the bonnet seems to go on forever.

Capris look killer!!!

Unfortunately there's one in weston (nice cond, red and pretty swish), but it's driven by a chav... :/

My capri!!!

Fucks sake, i want one now.

Why is driving so stupidly expensive?!

there is a guy in weston who runs a company called capri restrorations, and he did mine for me. His name is adam, and i first met him at a car show when he had a tankard t shirt on, he is in his thirties and a thrash man, and he has some sweet motors.

I saw this amazing one on Ebay the other day. It was done up in the Rat style, it just looked like a dirty as fuck muscle car. I think they have put a cosworth engine in it as well.

Pure brilliance. I also want a Triumph Stag, they are amazing!

triumph are a good car too, i also have a 1975 toledo. I cant afford a stag, although if i could i'd sooner buy a tickford capri.

Yeah the tickford is boss, though i have to say i have always hated the body kits available for capris. I like mine almost stock, but fitted with daft blowers.

As for having a Toledo, that just makes you a much bigger winner. There is a dolomite near me which is in a real sorry state, and a Scimitar. I just wish i could rescue them.
