2.0 laser donor car

Post by suzette bullock »

I have access to a2.0 Laser which is about to be scrapped but I have talked the owner into selling me some bibs and bobs (external eg. light lenses for £20. He wants to sell the whole car and I'm not sure if I use the parts from under the bonnet etc if they are compatible as I have a 1.6 , not a 2.0. Idf it is compatible, how much do I offer him for it? It's been in a few collisions with brick walls and the bodywork is holier than the the Archbishop of Canterbury !

Scrap Capri

Post by guitarswet »

If you really have space for another Capri to sit on your drive then offer him the scrap value - £50. If it has an MOT then it is worth £100. If the carb is OK you could put this on your 1600 and get a significant improvement in performance. It would need setting up by a garage who knew what they were doing but it is a popular conversion. Don't bother if it's a high mileage carb as you'll end up worse off.
