Re: Silly little front valance woes

Amazing! Thanks - didn’t spot any, but it’s entirely possible the dirt may have been hiding them !!

Silly little front valance woes

Hello! I feel like I might’ve brought this up before, not sure, but I’m wondering if anyone has any advice or ideas for this highly irritating cracked bonnet valance (not actually sure what you’d call it officially). A piece has already fallen off somewhere while driving - never to be seen again - a...

Re: Agreed value insurance help

Thanks all. I declared my main mods. Had forgotten about my twin exhaust too, whoops - so that's on there too, and it made no difference to my premium. Happy days, just need to take and send off the photos for the agreed value part, for the Capri, and the TR6. Wish me luck!

Re: Agreed value insurance help

ok, thanks guys! So I should declare twin choke webbers, carb, race cam. How detailed do you go? Is it more engine-based than cosmetic, new wings etc?

Re: Agreed value insurance help

Ok great, thanks. And what are opinions on declaring mods... does it make much difference to the cost?

Agreed value insurance help

Hi guys, hope everyone is really well. My insurance is up for renewal and i'm changing to KGM / A-Plan on the same policy as I have the TR6 as they've offered me a super competitive rate. I have an agreed value on the TR6 and looking to do the same with the capri, but I have to give an estimated val...

Must be summer...

Hey all, just got the Capri out of hibernation - big thanks to Major Tom for the help driving me about to get a new battery, and doing an oil change. So, I’m asking on here too as know the wanted pages don’t get so much attention. I’m in need of a horn stalk 76EG 13335 AA. Could also do with some ne...

Searching for 3L ghia: SNK984W or similar

Hey guys! Nice to see a few of you at the Ace Cafe at the weekend! I've recently caught up with an old friend who sold his 3L red Ghia ten years ago, plate: SNK984W. His car was an absolute beast, and by no means standard. In fact, it was the first Capri I ever went in as a passenger when I was a te...

Re: Wheel bearings please

Awesome, thanks! Just found loads on Ebay too, but like you say, better to get decent ones than some dodgy knock offs.

Wheel bearings please

Hello all! Surely time for my annual parts beg.

Can anyone put me onto some nice new wheel bearings? Capri is at my local garage at the moment and they're having trouble sourcing any.

Ta!

I'm back! (With a broken car)

Hi all, Apologies that I tend to only stop by these days when something's gone wrong! My Capri had been fairly problem free for a while, but on Friday the anti roll bar nut fell off the drivers side front and rolled into the road along with the bush, and so the car sunk down massively onto the tyre ...

Hi guys, So i've just got my capri out of the garage early this year as the weather has been so nice – and my front two tyres would really benefit from being replaced, i've currently got Yokohamas on there, but have just been told that hardly anywhere is easily doing the size I need. Any recommendat...
