The Ford Capri Laser Page

I have been using a similar method to close my sun roof for a few years now. However I wait until I can park somewhere and get out of the car. With the drivers window down I wind the roof closed while pressing down on the sun roof with my other hand. I totally agree with the last comment, use your s...

I believe that 5.5 inch wheels were fitted to the GL model from late 1980, probably when the long centre console & opening rear windows became standard fittings. The 5.5 inch wheels were also fitted to the 1.6S, Cabaret and ( I think the Calypso). I think that the 5.5in version of these wheels m...

I may be wrong, but I think that once you remove the plastic trim from the steering column and release the lower dash on the left of the steering column, you may be able to locate the fuse holder. If I remember right you may see it about half way between the ignition switch and where the ashtray is ...

Yes I I've been lucky (some might disagree) as I still own the Laser 2.0 that I bought in 1987. It is Rosso Red and I believe it was built in November 86, making it one of the last 4 cylinder models. Hi do you have any photos of you Laser ? Would love to see them , its great that you have managed t...

Thanks Jasonmarie. I'm not quite sure what info you got. Did you get everything but the name and addresses of the current registered keeper? I always thought that DVLA would be reluctant to give details of the current keeper.

Regards.

I agree with Paul on these problems. The first thing I would check with the lights after the bulbs would be for a bad earth connection. I had problems with the lights on my Laser last year and it turned out to be a badly corroded earth on the offside headlamp bucket. This caused some very strange ef...

Hi chaps

I have been amazed at the number of viewings of my posting. I am just wondering if anyone on hear has tried the suggestion of contacting DVLA themselves for the purpose of tracings a previously owned vehicle and what response was received.

I agree. Hope you keep it in this condition!!
I think I also saw this car on EBAY and thought it looked to be a great buy if it's as good as the picks suggest.

Congratulations and I hope you enjoy your new car.

Thanks for the advice. I think I'll wait a little to see if I get any more response to my original message posting. If I decide to make an enquiry with DVLA I'll let you know if get any useful info.

Thanks for your advice guys. I agree that DVLA are unlikely to give a name & address to anyone but the current owner. Will have to wait and see if I get any further response. I may try a notice in CCI mag etc.

Regards

Hi there fellow Capri fans. I would be very interested to know if anyone knows the fate of a Capri I used to own. She was a Cabaret 11, 2.0 in Imperial Red over Strato Silver. Registration DJX330Y. I traded her in against a new Laser at Heanon Ford in Bingley, West Yorkshire in February 1987 (Should...
