Capri Laser.....further pics
The main photo's were taken in 2011, and the engine pictures in June 2015 after several hours work cleaning the engine bay, and refurbishing the manifold and heat shield. I have owned her from new (Aug 1985) and at the time of writing, she has covered just under 248,000 miles. She is now in better nick than the owner.... Hope you all approve ?!

Hope we approve ? That's a stunner mate must be fantastic to have owned this from new & put every one of those miles on it. It looks excellent, a really well kept Capri.
Cheers,
Rob

Hi Andy,
I agree with Rob's opinion. Looking at the photos you'd swear it was a sub 50,000 miler. It's a credit to you.
All the best,
Andrew.

Re: Capri Laser.....further pics
Many thanks for all your kind words chaps.
It has indeed been a real pleasure to have owned her for all these years, although not without the odd worry, hiccup and concern along the way !. I believe the saying is 'maintained regardless of cost' !.
I must admit that even after all these years, it still makes me smile when I see people looking at her, and I always carry my Capri 'Anorak' in the boot just in case the admirers want to talk 'shop' !.

Yes it's true, and being the 'saddo' that I am (or is it OCD ?!) I have every invoice from the last 30 years to prove it.
