The Ford Capri Laser Page

The thing is.. You don't really notice the good cyclists. That's a very good point that is. As with everything, it's the bad that sticks out the most. I do think that a lot of those with a hatred for cyclists would have a different opinion if they spent half a day on a bike out there. Being on our ...

Well done! I thought I might not have explained it very well, pleased that it's sorted.

I don't have a lot of experience with Flickr, so would have to look into it further to properly advise. However, on that link you posted if you click on that link (which takes you to the webpage), and then right click and choose to 'view page info'. Scroll down to where it says og:image, and that's ...

It must cost a fortune to get the club's own tooling set up for a production run of these. I've thought the same actually, in general, with reproducing parts. As you rightly say, tooling costs are the killer. And the retail cost to us, though not cheap, is not excessive either. Testament to the fac...

I think I can see the issue possibly, that link you posted is for the web page, as opposed to the actual image. The actual image is this - http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7281/15853686753_a136c161b7_z.jpg And when used does display the pic, as below. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7281/15853686753_a136...

Exactly, especially as the originals are so brittle now. They have had them available for some time. I don't think that any of the fixing holes are in place.

Quick question aimed at the less technically inept than me (everyone).

There could be several reasons as there are many variables. But, have you tried using the URL option as opposed to the IMG one. Also, it may make a difference if your pic is private or public.

Really? All of them round your neck of the woods are as bad? No wonder you have this dislike of them. Personally I believe that there are good and bad, just like car drivers really.

peers.dupp wrote:...sharing a massive pool of knowledge.

It's very true that. It's as good as the Haynes, if not better.

Does anyone know why the CCI pedal covers do not come with the holes pre-drilled? I know it's easy enough to do, although maybe not so easy to get them in the correct place. Does the hole position vary as regards to model perhaps? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NEW-MK3-capri-pedal-cover-under-dash-fibreg...

What brilliant pics. How can you not look at those and smile

Goodness me! Obviously you can only go off personal experience, but not all cyclists are as like minded.

There was more historic rallying on Motors TV last night, it was the Roger Albert Clark rally. Great to see these old cars going at it and they sure can motor! Always seems to be on so late though, this was 2.00am. Worth 'taping' though.

Must have been terrifying to see. Thing is, it won't be a one off will it, he's most likely using that as a frequent transport method for the little one.

Just getting a copy made for personal use is entirely different to making them for sale I`d have thought? Yes most likely. I doubt very much that any of those selling them would have been bothered by that though? By the way, with the altered one above I was trying to demonstrate that you can create...

The cycling aspect doesn't bother me, but the danger to the baby sure does!

Just to show how easy it can be I have altered the arrow depth on the decal below, more in keeping with the correct one which Steve posted. Took a couple of minutes that's all, and that's on a photo, even easier on an actual graphics file - http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b1/pbar/Capri%20Heater%20...

No one will bother about it, may not even be any copyright attached, anyone who wants to copy it and make a few stickers, will just do so.

It might come out of the back? And you use an extension cable which you can locate wherever you wish maybe.

No one is going to worry about copyright infringement, differences in design are just down to lack of accuracy. It's o...
