Forget taste, the 80's was all about lairy kits. Got the inspiration from looking at the thread with old ads on, and looking for a Mk2 Disastra Estate. Zender, RGM, the guys who did the X-Pack, all guilty! Anyway, on with the kits! Mattig Astra: MC Rallying Astra: X-Pack Capri: Escort RS2000 X-Pack: Mini Monaco: Also, where did all those cars from the 70's with Jack-Up kits go? and the window louvres? I remember my uncle having one on his Mk4 Cortina, then his Mk2 Fiesta.

I was really impressed with the top one when it came out, it had ridiculously wide rear tyres (345?) for a frontdriver... as wide as the coolest Ferrari's at the time. My god, what were they thinking?

Fibre sports reckon they did the Capri X packs. I do like that Mattig Astra!

it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts

Not sure TBH, On the old fashioned information packs they send out, I'm sure it mentioned that they were the origianal suppliers, was a couple years ago i got that stuff.

Dima 205 - I loved that - Based on the T16? - looked a lot better than the Mattig Astra.
