The Ford Capri Laser Page

Martin,
You paint a bleak picture of the future with regards to spares availability.
I'm starting to worry.

Andrew.

Hi, That's good news. Do we know if these fuel senders are available for all fitments? Even though I don't need a sender (at the moment) I'm tempted to buy one, as we don't know what quantities they will be produced in. If few people buy one, a second batch won't be comissioned. After all, the selle...

[quote="stevemarl"]That though is entirely different to somebody listing a £15 part and asking £500 for it. The intent is different; at some level you`re not greedy, they are! That`s what gets people`s backs up,[quote] Hi, I think Steve raises a good point here. It stinks of profiteering a...

Hi Andy,
I think Dave has a point. However nice your old Capri is, I'm not sure it's worth the asking price.

Is it the highest asking price yet for a 2.8i?

Andrew.

I always thought it must be mineral oil do you know if thats the case? Cheers Alex Hi Alex, Using synthetic or semi synthetic oil shouldn't do the engine any harm if it's in fine fettle. However, these oils contain detergents which may cause blockages if the engine has been run on mineral oil. I ha...

If only the advert had sound.....the Janspeed noise would sell the car!

Hi All,
Square hole for the axle, hex for the gearbox.

Hi,
I believe that Castrol have discontinued Valvemaster. However, Valvemaster+ is still available.

Very true!

Hi Dave,
I would love to own that!
I suppose it's an opportunity to buy a little bit of motor racing history.

Andrew.

Hi Les,

Quite right! It's not about making money, it's about having the car of your dreams.

Looks fantastic, by the way. More pics, please!

All the best,
Andrew.

The reason that I typed it both ways, is that I have seen it both ways. Anyone know any history of ROKSTOCK? A Richard Kizer and ????? Just a couple of guys? Anyone?????? THank YOU~ Hi, Don't know about the history, but I found this, if it's of any interest to you? http://www.fordcapriforum.com/for...

Hi,
I suppose if somebody is undertaking a concours rebuild, then only genuine NOS will do.

Hi,
An advert from the days when you could refer to top speed and show imagines of fast driving.
Nowadays the adverts are all about showing lifestyles.

Andrew.

Hi Andy, Thanks for posting the advert for us to see. the market is on the way up? I think it's fair to say that the dealer thinks that the classic car market is flourishing. I must admit, it's being advertised for more than I thought it would! The dealer must be getting lazy, aren't they the same p...

Hi All, Sorry to hear that you've been messed about, Cliff. I think you're right not to view the car on principle. As has been said above, the seller should have done his research before posting the for sale advert. They've probably looked at other adverts and decided it was priced too cheaply. Howe...

Les,
Cool, the four spokes on polished rims will look stunning against the blue paintwork.

How is the interior refurb coming along?

All the best,
Andrew.

Hi Les,
Lovely car, it doesn't look like an ugly duckling to me!
Are you keeping those wheels on the car?
Only somebody is selling a set of Ghia wheels on the parts for sale page.

Andrew.

Hey i just worked out if we have 66,000 members on this forum we could all chip in a quid and buy this for Dave's P100.... Hi Nick, I would, honestly I would, but all my spare cash is going into my "retire before I'm 120" fund! Besides, there are only 3550 forum users, so each one would h...
