Hi all,

a little late out with this one, appologies. Still caring for the folks so very hard to get out n about as I used to do.... I did manage to get here for an hour or so though, so here we go. Lets kick off with the usual meet up at South Mimms....

Just myself & Tom this year.... :shock: :shock: :shock:

So on arrival we got parked up and very quickly surounded with other great Cappa's....Image20220827_102054 by jon taylor, on Flickr

Then having had a bit more of a catch up with Tom, I went for a little wonder....Image20220827_102943 by jon taylor, on Flickr

This stunner showed up nice & early on....Image20220827_103806 by jon taylor, on Flickr

Then we had a little shuffle round... Why does my Cappa look like a little toy in this pic???? :crying: :crying: :crying:

Following this bit of excitement, I went for another little wonder round... Got to love this Green....

Always loved a Red Cappa....

Not too much you can say about this stunning pair!!!

Another stunning MK1... Had a nice chat with Donovan the owner... He's building another one!!!

Another stunning Cappa, seen this all over down here and a very nice owner I've chatted to several times now. Sorry, I've forgotten your name again if you're reading this.....

This looked amazing from behind!!!
Image20220827_123456 by jon taylor, on Flickr

But even better from the front....

Another slightly breathed on....

Great side slash pipes...

And now onto the Gate Crashes.... Can't really complain when they look this good though....

Hi John,
I hope all is well with you and your folks.
Fab photos as always, thanks for uploading them.
There always seems to be a good variety of Capris at the Ace, something for all tastes. As long as Capris are your taste. Which they are, of course! :lol:

Andrew.
