  • kind of disappointed, i wanted to see him get a Shelby GT500 or something

  • Nobody realizes they're calling Muscle Car an english/german car with a 3.5 litre engine... from a Rover haha please at least they should get a Ford V8..

  • looks good.. the best parti is 1:45 :)

  • small ass tires.. looks weird on that body 

  • Lot of jelous fucktards in the comment section.

  • i am in the process of modifying my old 1971 Capri Mk1.. I mean i live in a Poor island in Asia.. but guys.... even we can do better than that.. i mean look at the dashboard.. the grille.. the measurements are all wrong.. thats just sad. to see Discovery channel people selling crap like this.. cheap junk.. they could have restored it to be something like rs2600 or 3100.. but i know this is a mk3.

    The sad part is they are giving this legend this piece of junk as a retirement gift.

  • ukhardman...you're INCORRECT this car was NOT sold on e-bay...the 'German' winner did not go through with the deal......thats what i know!

    ebay item=230546530877

  • this car was sold on ebay for £4600 :P

  • LD's Capri is no longer for sale....You will see it around 'Essex' - just needs finishing properly (not just for TV!!!!) - I'm smiling from ear to ear! ;-)

  • You can't be a car designer without any drawings. In my opinion, this is very ungly car... Is it only me who see it this way?

  • that car is now up for sale in a garage in pinner for 6 grand... altohugh the doors no longer open by the key button, so needs some manaul pull on it lol... in current condition they want 4 grand for it .... i sat in it an its a beast

  • @ForTorisEyesOnly But you wouldn't get it ready in like a month. And it wouldnt look this great

  • imagine lawrence's embarasement when a whole stadium takes a look what the crap they gave him.... probably thats why he would take a retirement

  • I'd be ashamed to drive that pile of bs

  • what a small,ugly,sad little car.

  • what about the spacers they use to widen the car! are they legal in the UK?

  • the wasps r black and yellow so i think theres a reason they painted it black and yellow..ya think?

  • good work but nothing beats the ferrari which he created long back

  • The paint work matches Dayglo's club. Wasps. So grey stripes would be an away shirt....?

  • bring back chop shop!

    discovery channel made a mistake scrapping the show!!

  • Still looks like a capri at the end of the day. And why would they use a rover 3.5 v8?? I would have gone ford or small block chevy. You will struggle to get any more than 300bhp from a rover v8. Poor cylinder head design, thats why is was junked by buick in the first place

  • that same engine was used in the jaguar xkr , xjr and the range rover sport and those werent slow, it wasnt fast b4 beacuse buick didnt know how to design engines very well (correct me if im wrong) rover refined that engine and it was one the best

  • The 3.5 litre v8 wasnt used in any off those, they were all 4.0+ 4.2 litre v8, and the range rover sport also had a supercharger fitted hence why it has so much power. The stock rover 3.5 v8 used in this capri produces 190 bhp which isnt a lot for an engine of that capacity. My 1.8 litre celica vvtli produces the same amount of power.

  • well i guess i stand corrected, i think they used it coz thats the cheapest v8 they could find....

    toyota engines are one of the best(next bmws straight 6)

  • i feel that they never manage to show the cars properly.. all the shots of the finished cars are either closeups of details or a done in a weird angle or to much in motion or too short..

  • i was there when it was unvieled. 25th may 2008 lawrence dallaglio generation game. And i've met the team before, there legends ...WASPS TILL I DIE

  • i was their wen the car was shown a great car 2 a great man (who ive met)

  • Looks like he's smiling when he turns the key to me . . .

    Perhaps the nicest car these boys have made.

    Smart to keep it simple. Just use a V-8

  • Best car in the show for me. Nice Engine and the car looks good but, i would put all in Black without the yellow stripes.

  • leepu is the business.

  • He even isint happy ugly shit car

  • U GUYS ROCK !!!!

  • Finally another car that actually looks good and sounds good!!!!!!!

  • Personally, I go for the remarkable panel alignment at 0.59, not a panel beater myself but should it look that wank?

  • meanest looking capri ever - sounds the nuts. I'm a big retro Ford fan, added with the 3.5V8 is just amazing !! - I wonder if Lawrence still has it??

  • the car should be longer and lower.. they always make their cars too high

  • Are you aware it's a car made for someone who is over 6 feet 4 inches tall?

  • :-O where is the car trunk???

  • For all his Im an artist drama he's no "genius",

    he copies and changes.

    There's never any quality about the cars, there always flimsy with tacky accessories from halfords stuck on !

  • exactly what im finkin the quality is poor and any1 giveing these coment a thumbs down you havent got a clue im a mechanic and i get to work on sum of the nicest cars on the planet!! and when youve seen and felt quality 1st hand u knw what shit is a mile off

  • They're good about car making

    But  Dont like this one

  • They should have said, "Simple, we're going to give you a Capri with a beefy engine", all that 'design' talk and arguing for nothing!

  • lol, it looks just like a capri. I know, lets get a capri thats just a shell, and rebuild it to make it look like a, well erm capri lol!

  • Er... Its still a Capri ...

  • Look pretty good, but that might be because I just watched the chopshop 4x4 golf mess up by Lepu.

  • A Ford Capri ? Are they kidding me !

    This is chop shop alright, they should put bodge job in that title aswell.

    What a couple of clowns.

  • This has got to be the only decent looking car I've seen built on that show

  • I have watched a few of these vids now.

    And I hate nearly every single car iv seen... They just all look really ugly in my opinion.

  • Looks like some essex boy racer d.i.y job, plain hideous

  • A nice muscle Capri, but as a retirement present for a legend, it's a bit chav.

  • A Dagenham dustbin with a Rover engine!. Would have been better just looking for a Capri with a tickford kit already fitted....yet again ChopShit, he's losing his touch!. Much better at the Ferrari-alikes.

  • i was there....lawerence dallaglio's generation game, it was awesome, it was great to meet and greet them afterwards. I also went the final...it was kickass

    lawerence dallaglio - rugby legend

    once a wasps, always a wasp

  • mad max car

  • such a silly looking car, why a capri?/?, i think i would piss myself laffin if i seen him at asdas getting out of that thing. WTF are the reading in chop shop MAXPOWER,LOL

  • i've seen him make much better ones :/

  • looks just like a capri, some designer not!

  • looks badass

  • yeah but a bit 80's. im not so sure i would drive it to the supermarket at a saturday
