That is pretty damn sweet, not official so its a cool enthusiast thing, not a Factory original collectors item

Id love it!

A mate of mine has a turbo technics 205 gti, its incredibly fast, has adjustable boost for day to day driving and has been very reliable over the few years he's had it.

You don't see many turbo technics cars around full stop, most have been chaved or crashed but the engines were well built.

Aside form the number plate it don't look bad eh?

Getting rarer by the day, they did very good conversions, my mate used to have a twin turbo V6 Sierra which was running around 360bhp and my god would it shift.
