The car is great, but there's not exactly a lot of Capri left in it is there?

Superb, that Capri has some great handling.

I was thinking exactly the same - better corner exits than the Porsches and with next to no oversteer. It goes rather well and with minimal lag seeing as it's a 1.5 litre turbo!

That was superb. Love those old race cars.

The 935K3 is one of my favourites although the Zakspeed Capri is beautiful. Takes me back to a dark, damp Donington Park many years ago when these beasts raced there.

More please.

it's got the same back lights and grille as mine!
