Is only to inform this, in portugal all the mods you made is illegal. If you put a sub-woofer in your car they take your car.
Me and my mates are tired of this shit of land.
My car is all ilegal here and is not possible to lagalize, they don?t want to.
They say Tuning=Murder.

Sorry to put this post but like i said is only to inform.

Maybe that?s an idea if we put some inglish plates and legalize the car over there we can do the mods we want and come back to portugal.
Only we have to do is buy some house over there.

Belive me Mel this country is very stupid.

We're really lucky in Britain compared to the rest of Europe in that respect. You can do pretty much anything to your car as long as it passes the MOT. An MOT tester once said to me you could replace your seats with a big toolbox as long as its fastened securely :!:

It's just as well we're allowed to have fun with our cars in Britain cuz our public transport system's rubbish.

I heard about some EU countries that allow styling mods, but no engine modifications. Can't believe portugal doenst allow any mods at all :o

Here in Portugal, like akeem said, we have to join the dark side, like japanese guys who have normal cars to go to work or something like that and tuned up cars to go to the streets racing at the night time, waiting for some really bad stuff happends.
Believe me mates this is a caos.
With the new law i have to put my car on a garage and i cannot drive with him otherwise the take my car.
It?s only stupid but-heads on this governament.
