Hi Neil,
I think it's fair to say that it's a little more than I'd be willing to pay.

Hi Neil,
Your car looks stunning, as always. A real beauty!

Being a "sheff", I would have thought that you worked in a restaurant! :)

All the best,

Re: 2.0 to 2.8

Hi Toby, In addition to Bug's list, don't forget that the V6 shells are strengthened in several places as well, so you'll have to take the car to somebody who can weld in all the bits and bobs. I agree with Bug's conclusion. If you want a 2.8, just buy one. It will be a lot easier and cheaper as wel...

Re: Radio Knob

Will any of these fit, Hi Dave, Thanks for the links. They all look pretty similar to me. If they're not, they're definitely close enough. And a lot cheaper! :) What I'm also after is the little knob for the balance control and the seek sensitivity with the little white dots on. Can anyone help? Al...

To put it into perspective, if you had 100 radio knobs, you could buy a car with the proceeds!

No, not Tim Westwood! :)

I was tempted to have a bid on this a few days ago, I don't think I'll bother now!

Re: Thermotime switch

Hi, As far as I can tell, the allen screw things are just some kind of blanking screws, they are not fixed to anything. I've had a few different thermotime switch casings in the last few months, and I've never managed to actually undo any of the allen screws. Hope that helps you! All the best, Andrew.

Re: Ford meet at the Jolly farmer RH9 8JR from 7.00pm 18/03/15

Have seen quite a few of Mk1 Kierans Videos :D So have I now! ;) They're the next best thing to going there. Some of the drivers like to leave it style, don't they? But, at the risk of sounding like a fuddy-duddy, it's the burnouts and revving of engines that anger the local residents and puts futu...

Hi All, I now that this is resurrecting and old(ish) thread, but I noticed that there is a chap on Youtube who posts videos of cars leaving lots of the Jolly Farmer meets. This is the latest one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnysXgMl_Dw It's only 4 minutes long and is worth watching, there are so...

Hi Andy, You get what you pay for.... :) Too true, and in the case of that P6, although the asking price seems high on the face of it, the car looks as though it doesn't need any money spending on it at all. Ready to take out and enjoy! Those seats look like you can just sink into them and go for a ...

Re: Capri spotted North London

Hi Nick, Spotting a Capri or a decent classic on the road makes me smile too. Sometimes I forget that I'm not driving the Capri, and flash my lights or wave..... I might have to start holding up a sign that says "I've got one of those at home". The driver might give a cheery wave instead o...
