The Ford Capri Laser Page

oooohh thanks guys

Hmmm
Think I may have sold it to elliecharlie2008 but they havent been online in 2 years...

It's been a long time since I've been online (Around 9 years ago when I was 21). I'm now, older, not in uni, working and hopefully a little bit wiser..... maybe. I had to give up the car due to not having garage, very limited funds, time, saving for a house and thinking about kids. No idea if I'm lo...

Thanks Nick, I know exactly what you mean. I might just keep an eye on the Sorn/Taxed status, and see how it goes. Could be years yet...

So I haven't been on here since selling my Capri Project due to other commitments, time and cost. Nice upgrade to the site by the way, the old site was looking a bit dated :) After speaking with a mate and showing pictures of my old Capri, I got wondering how it's getting on. According to the DVLA i...

HAHA thanks Peter.

It wasn't advertised anywhere else. I just got a call from a random number and he said someone at Halfords (my mate) said I was selling mine as a project.

Yeah, he turned up a D Reg, Red Capri Laser as well. probably next to each other on the production line.

He said he's restored quite a few, and was going to use this one to work on with his son.

After a few phones calls with a really nice chap called Simon we came to an arrangement of getting the front shocks and wheels on and sold it for £550. Lower than I wanted, but the mrs had the baby 2 weeks ago, so no time to mess about. Full service history, 170k, project, 5 RS wheels, new clutch ki...

No problem

I hope you're right!

I know someone who has a kid with one woman, is now with another woman who has a kid. And now they are having a kid. He doesn't work, he does half a day a week so he is eligible for his dole money. Now, with a kid on the way, they were having midwife visit. The house was horrible, I couldn't step fo...

What's so bad about Capris? Are they not very strong?

Money buys Jetskis. Have you ever seen a sad person on a Jetski?

I don't trust the accuracy of that site.

Poor B*stard.... Anyone thought of starting a charity for these poor souls?

I think I going to go home, curl up in the fetal position in the corner of the kitchen and cry until it's the weekend!

They installed industrial looking roll cages...

This month my overall income is double, so I expected the tax double. Fine, no problem, that's is how percentages work. Percentages don’t necessarily work that way in tax calculations though. Simplified example: Salary £1,000, tax free personal allowance for month £800 so tax at 20% on £200 = £40. ...

That would be nice... Tax and national insurance add up to over £800 for this month + £200 student loan. So a £1000. Salary + bonus before tax I got £3246. 20% of that is around £650 40% is obviously around £1300 Tax + NI = £800 Even without paying a student loan I'm overtaxed by about £150 :? It's ...
