Re: heard it all now....
What about 'when'?
Since when did we start a sentence with when?
Example:
" I went to the fridge but I'd run out of beer"
"WHEN you go to the fridge and you've run out of beer"
Don't get me started on the % 110

Re Green Flag....... I've always had great service from them.

Re: Rubber washer between tail light lense and screw?
You can get assorted sized fibre washers for plumbing applications from any decent diy or plumbers merchants.
They're the orange/red sort of coloured washers used in compression joints around your home.
You can even get leather ones .....and of course rubber.

Cable ties/zip ties........never leave home without them.

Re: Moving on but still part of the blue oval club
As soon as the Tranny steels are back from the banders in Manchester and she's off the axle stands due to me hitting it with the lowering stick, I'll stick a couple on for :ford: pervs of all flavours, Andy. On the wheel banding front, I'll let you all know how mine turn out....... Capri's look uber...

Re: Moving on but still part of the blue oval club
I needed a classic :ford: to knock around in while I do project GBH so I recently purchased a P100 Sierra pick up. Love Sierra's as well as Capri's and Cortina's. Mine will be a great Capri parts chaser and I'll be able to hold my head up at some Ford meets with its low stance and banded steels........

Personally I like the mk2 with bits European square headlamps and indicators and really dislike to see mk2's with the 'startled' look of mk3 twin headlamps.......

Re: Hello!
mate....... more powerful than a Pinto?
Research about the power that can be extracted from them.
Some of us have "oh is it only a 2 litre ?" Pinto's and they're cracking engines. I have one in my Capri plus one in my P100 pick up......

All joking apart, your silver Laser looks stunning. I'm guessing it was fairly new when that photo was taken. I bet it's the one car that you wish you'd never sold. Andrew. Yes Andrew, it was 4 years old when that was taken. I was 18. It was a one owner car (a Doctor) and yes I wish I'd never sold ...
