Re: Fitting of Electric Aerial - How?

I believe the 2,8s had an additional `plate` at the rear of the wheelarch to stop spray going up back of inner wing, lesser models didn`t have these; basically on the N.S., the right hand (as you look at it) of the rear arch is actually a bolted on plate, remove that & you have access to aerial...

Fitting of Electric Aerial - How?

Its original one broke a few years ago and wasn't replaced, just removed by the previous owner and the ...

Re: New Janspeed exhausts

Put a full front to back Janspeed plus manifolds on my last Capri (MK3 3.0 Ghia) and it sounded superb! I have a Capri Club system on my current 2.8i, and whilst it sounds great, I do prefer the look of the "pea shooters" on the Janspeeds as they are reasonably closer to the original look....

Re: 2.8i or 2.8i special and fuel

As the add said at the time: "Wheels, Paint, Leather, Limited Slip- that's what makes the Capri Injection Special" :D The 5 speed box was brought in for 83 - I have a 5 speed Injection non special. If its a C plate it will be a Special as the range was rationalised in 84 (B plate onwards) ...

Roasting today so the Injector was filling the air with nice V6 tones. Passed a Signal Amber MK2 Mexico coming the other way, we exchanged a grin and thumbs up out the window :)

Re: my motor

Your car is absolutely gorgeous mate, Laquer Red is always a cracking colour. Will always have a soft spot for Lasers as my first Capri was a Black Laser and youll never forget your first Capri :)
