Re: ULEZ Expansion

When i can register her historic later this year I'm sure i will not have to pay ULEZ as will be exempt Nick, I`m afraid it`ll be April next year before it`s exempt, it would never be that simple... Vehicles exempt from vehicle tax If your vehicle was built before 1 January 1984, you can stop payin...

Re: ULEZ Expansion

I didn't realise it's stopped you driving your Capri for a year though, what a bummer. :lol: That remark of mine was a bit tongue in cheek mate. The Capri has been in the garage for many reasons fella. Sometimes you just have to take a bit of a step back for a while when other things crop up and yo...

Yes Paul. Brilliant soundtrack to a brilliant film mate !

Re: Who Remembers?

Regional TV programmes, thing of the past now of course. https://i.postimg.cc/bJFnnwDv/Regional-TV-Map.jpg Ahh yes Paul regional tv and they all had there own identity logos too. Visiting Dad up in West Yorkshire the tv adverts are still related to surrounding areas which is quite funny to see.

Classic Ford Magazine Special Edition

Just got my latest copy of CF and it's a Collectors Special for the Capri. Not the whole edition but quite a few pages dedicated to the Capri but not enough in my opinion at nigh on £10 !! I do direct debit so they automatically send it. Think they should warn of any Special Editions at a higher pri...
