Hi I am Ian from Devon . Have just brought a laser 2.0 in blue . need some work doing to it which i am prepared to do , Body work is quite good but had it on the ramp and have found three areas which need welding so its in the garage while i am away next week . Went for a drive last sat and had three people who parked next to me talk about how they had one and wish they never got rid of it certainly seems to be an eye opener. Daft thing is it was my first journey and got two stione chips in windscreen , so checked my ins and its £80 .00 excess to replace . When i am back its my idea to stripp all inside and give carpet a good clean , strip dash to sort out fan heater . there is wear on the ash box due to thumps so was wondering id i could take dash and the grey plastics to a car trimmer to be re painted and touched up .

Got a 1.6ls recently, pretty snazzy car for a 19 year old I think.
Since I got a capri I've said "over the moon" a lot more than ever before.

Hello guys,

I am from Fife in Scotland and new to this forum, I have a Capri 280 which I have owned since 1996. The car has been in storage since late 1998 it is having many new parts fitted at the moment so I can put it back on the road.

I have always been into Fords I currently also own a modified Mk.2 Focus RS in Frozen White.

regards

Jimmy
