It most likely You don't have a chance or money to make Your car road legal tho. It depends of what kind of car is that. If You have an old Honda Civic with stiffer suspension or lets say stance with a loud exhaust and the car did cost £500 to make it road legal You can count with £3000 certificate wise. Althought if You have an already expensive car then it "worth it" more though. To have it MOT over there is different by the shame here in UK. You can't cover modifications with You insurance You actually need to get an engineer to test it for You that mod's.
Live outside the box, push the boundaries. People need a shake up. What a fantastic statement of individuality. Not to mention getting the engineering to work good enough that you managed to get it registered.. The world needs more people lie you..

@@MrDalgard No, it is not. It doesn't comply with German laws and safety regulations, therefore you couldn't drive it in Germany.
