Re: Almost like learning to drive again!
Ha ha. Sounds like good fun trying to learn again. Imagine owning a vehicle that has the wipers on left / indicator on the right and sharing the driving between that and others that are the more conventional way around. As you said, this was the way in Britain before the cars became Europeanised. An...

Re: I'm back......
Lovely motor! That Cardinal Red is a stunning colour! You have done well there.
Interested to see what you were saying about the XR Sierra. That was quite a nice tool, wasn't it ? Or did you not think so ?

Re: Alloy Wheel sealant.
Thanks for that additional guidance on the alloys it probably should be applied to. Well, the Capri alloys are being refurbed next year. So this will be applied after that. My Mondeo alloys also are being refurbed. My Subaru alloys are only 500 miles into life, total. So I think I may have some usag...

New Member to the group
Hello Fellow Capri Owners, After a bit of a loud bang that you may have seen me enter in the forum with, I thought I ought to introduce myself more properly. I did say I would on the other post/thread. So me personally - well, I have quite a bit of motoring history as I am approaching the half centu...

Re: Alloy Wheel sealant.
Hi Andrew - that Poorboys wax seems excellent! I need to find something that preserves the alloys on all of my cars as some get used more than others and it seems that after a while (even sometimes after refurb), they they descend into the usual "not best shape" condition, with hard to rem...

Re: New Ford on my driveway
Very nice car! These and the Mondeo ST220 are probably the stand out motors for me, of recent times, as they look aggressive enough and are aggressive to suit. The later Focus ST is, IMHO, not as aggressive looking as these Mk2's. The only issue with 300bhp going through the front wheels on these is...

Ford's 50th Birthday celebration of the Capri
Hello Forum members, I make my apologies for the abrupt entrance here. I haven't even introduced myself. I will do. But when you get to the bottom of this post, you'll see that this is all about you, the Capri owner, not about me. :D Sorry, I am going to have to make this bold to stress the importan...

Re: Next Year will be the 50th Anything Happening?
Agreed Halewood would be good but it's now JLR production. I have a feeling its going to be Dunton Research Centre. Hi, Where did you hear that Ford were planning on organising something? I've had a quick look online to hopefully find some hints, but I can't find any mention of it at all. Andrew. I...
