I'm after one. What cars had them as standard? I don't mind doing a bit of work to extend it etc as long as I have something to start with.

I can think of SAAB 900, Porsche 911's, Mustangs? lol
Any gen? Not wanting to pay the £200 JDM y0 eBay prices for aftermarket jobs.
This car is immense. Pic for those who may not know what I mean.

For the Volvo. None available, so whatever is out there will need to be modified to fit. It's about 49" across the boot.

Link me what you find please. :)

Yeah I'm aware of the Capri ones mate. They may fit, but will carry some heavy OSF tax.
Was just wondering if anything came with them as standard. Albeit ones I will probably need to modify.
The 'look' probably costs a fortune TBH. lol

Good shout on the old Z ones CG. :) Bet they're a few quid! lol

I have a mate with a Capri with an rs3100 (or 2600 - I don't exactly know) replica ducktail.

Capri has been since smashed into by an old lady but it will be back!

Looking on there now Sloth. FOund the Ascona copies for £90 odd. Interesting mk1 Carpi boot and spoiler for around the same price too. Wonder which it is.
Mayhem, do you have any links dude? Cheers mate.

I've messaged him on FB, I hope he can shed some light on it. I would still take my old 340 over the Capri for a tramper just for fear of breaking the Capri!
