The Ford Capri Laser Page

Whilst watching Celebrity Juice last night they showed a trailer for a new show from one of the contestants Howard Donald (Take That) to be shown on Channel 4.

It involves car enthusiasts assembling a classic car which has been broken down into all of it's separate parts.

Among the classic cars I spotted a Capri in the background, so here's hoping.

Thanks for that Paul, it's called Mission Ignition and starts 30th March 8.30pm

Hopefully something worth watching on a Saturday evening

Thanks for the heads up, Paul.
It sounds like an interesting show, albeit a rip-off of the format of James May: The reassembler, although that's not a bad thing.
I hope the producers have made a genuine reality show, if you like, without the celebrities getting into any manufactured mishaps for the purposes of entertainment. The beauty of the James May show is the simplicity of the show.
I think the success of the programme may also depend on the chosen celebrities, if they have selected genuine car enthusiasts, this show could be great.

Andrew, and now I'm a little scared

Well, I can't imagine that Howard Donald, for example, will be particularly enthralling to watch, although I hope to be proved wrong!

I don't think there are any celebrities. It seemed to me that amateur mechanics/enthusiasts assemble the cars, two teams against each other, the winner being the team which puts it together and starts it first.

Even better!
So, is HD just the presenter?

Paul is right no other 'celebrities' in the programme

That was a good spot there Paul I started watching the lemon but ended up on my iPad .

That's right yes, along with a champion Indy Car driver.

You can see the Capri here -

That's the Capri from Ford Heritage.... The one motoring journaslists take out and Jamie Oliver used in his T/V programme

That was my initial thought too

Will most likely be promo footage. I think the clip I saw had one team doing a Beetle. Hope they do have a Capri though.

I watched the first episode last night, but wasn't that impressed with it
Not quite what I expected, nothing like James Mays The Reassembler and wasn't keen on the presenters.

Reading some comments on Capri World Facebook, it looks like I wasn't alone.

If there is a Capri episode I will watch it for that purpose, but happy to miss it otherwise.

Hi Andy,
I couldn't agree more. The first episode was a bit of a let down, and I found it rather boring.

Andrew.

Perhaps James May and Ed China could do their version; just the two of them...walk into a workshop find the car totally in bits and reassemble it....

They could give it away in a competition...text a number, or auction off and donate to charity!

I’ll watch the Capri episode they both take the heritage 280 around the track.

Yes same here i was lucky as I recorded it and did fast forward about 35 mins worth .
Not what I thought .

A car related programme with the likes of Ed, Fuzz and someone like James May who has technical capabilities and a sense of humour would be good. No bullsh****rs need apply
