Re: SEP 1, 2019 @ DUNTON, FORD – THE EVENT YOU ALWAYS PROMISED YOURSELF

Fantastic this has now been confirmed, but I'm torn! One part of me wants to attend, however there is so much organisation with Brooklands to do I'm not sure if I really can take the time or the money to get over to Dunton from where I am. I may have to miss it for that reason, but I'll make a decis...

Re: Simply Ford 2019

Right, well we have secured the tarmac area, and I have been advised if people purchase their tickets, and let me know, then I can email a club label to you individually when I receive it. 20 spaces set aside, let me know when you've booked your ticket online!

Re: Sierra and Capri UK ads

Completely agree on the old adverts, but that's the point. Car ownership was more special years ago, people used to take photos of themselves posing with their new purchase, be it new car or secondhand, or kids in their parents cars. Nowadays 99% of new cars are white goods, and I argue this point, ...

Re: Simply Ford 2019

Right, who's keen for it next year?

Beaulieu are doing a similar setup for the Capri as they did with the Escort at Simply Ford this year, so how about a joint SCC/Laser/CP club stand, on the tarmac? I need to give some good numbers but if we can get 25 combined than that'll be great!

Re: Edd's BACK!!!!!

First workshop was in Bracknell, annoyingly when I found this out Edd had moved. Also, many years ago, Discovery used to list each company they used for the work done on each car (at the time it was Series 4-series 9). Once the Americans had taken over, relocated Wheeler Dealers & revised the we...

Re: Edd's BACK!!!!!

Glad someone found this video again. I've never been Mike Brewer's biggest fan, but that's basically being a proper **** towards Edd. Brewer's the worst going! However, I have watched the latest Wheeler Dealers, because different mechanic, principles of putting cars together are the same. I just hav...

Blimey, there is going to be so much to do! If that goes ahead than just the following weekend is the 50th anniversary at Brooklands. I hope you dedicated Capri nutcases have got the petrol & the maintenance covered to be able to do all the miles required from show to show! It does sound great, ...

Even if you don't have a Capri, next year is the year to join in the celebrations!. In fact, I had already viewed my & put a deposit down on my Capri & picked it up 1 week after the 40th anniversary. I went to the 40th & I had kept it secret from my mates, only to blab all once everyone ...

Great pics guys! I have a few pics as well, great videos John, loving that!

I then had an...
