some people take owning a Capri to seriously. I DON'T

But I normally used mine for trips to the tip ! I smashed up a old asbestos shed and stuck it in the boot of mine

Mine ends up going down ditches and can't stay remotely clean for more than 5 minutes before I drive it through something (normally something brown at that). I've haven't got any roof bars for it yet but i've got a feeling it'll get some at some point.

My daily driver is dented, battered, covered in moss and bird ****e, the interior is full of hay and the plastic trim has gone an odd colour on one side. The wing mirror is gaffa taped on and the door speakers have worked themselves loose so they rattle like crazy. Sometimes the passenger door wont unlock from the outside. I take it offroading and the rear suspension sits 3" lower than it did when I got it, just through driving it overladen and ragging it down dirt tracks. Other than that it's mint.

if you ever put the car on ebay, you HAVE to put that in the listing lol

[aerosam]

were those fosters cans deliberate, or were they stuck on in the middle of the night by a couple of pissed up laser page members?Efi Pinto's rock!!!

[turbo-mike]

Yep they are deliberate, I like to pi55 off the rivet counters, that say a Brooklands has to stay as it came out the factory. I now have got some larger tins so they will cover more of the tail pipes. the focus badge was put on by Dean coz I stuck a ford badge on chris'e'boys rice rocket.

Driving too fast in the wet



Driving too fast in the snow



Driving my zakspeed too fast with the factory-fitted plastic tyres

[SpikeCapri]

what came of the zakspeed, havent heard anything about it in a while. Is it still in the garage?

[Major_Tom]

..of course it's still in the garage. Be a good winter project though. I've got a bit of welding to do on it, will take some more pics then.

I sure hope nothing goes wrong!
