Great line-up there, Andy! :D

Details of the show are a bit thin on the ground though... :lol:

Andy, I need to know ! :lol:

How's it going with your Sierra? Now you've owned it for a little while, you've had a chance to get to know it a little better.

Ok, it was Toby Carvery Exeter https://www.tobycarvery.co.uk/restauran ... /breakfast I think that would be a bit far for you just for breakfast :headscratch:

Re Sierra; all good thanks, I've only done just over 200 miles since I got it in August with the winter SORN. After a V8 and several V6s it took a bit of getting used to, but I love the fact it's a survivor car, the originality and simplicity of it, although being a GL it has a little luxury :lol:

It seems good on petrol so that's a bonus, easily keeps up with traffic and gets noticed quite alot too :cool:

Find of the century was a NOS Ford rear silencer for £30 inc delivery and now fitted :woot:

Great, you can't get better than that!
I've just had word that 35 Capris are expected at the W-S-M show on Easter Sunday. Are you going with your Sierra?

I forgot about that, as with many others it doesn't seem to be well advertised :?

I think I've found something about it online but no I won't be going, are you?

This show is usually poorly advertised, although it is usually on Easter Saturday and Sunday.
I didn't see anything advertised this year, I only know about it because Mark (with the black 2.0S) gave me the heads up.
I'll go, albeit not in the Capri, as long as the weather is OK. If not, I'll stay at home.

Ah ok, I know of Mark R.

Forecast looks good for the weekend but traffic might be an issue.

:goodluck:

Thanks Paul.

When I was in the queue waiting for the breakfast, 2 chaps in front were talking about the cars they had seen in the carpark and the Sierra, so I had to butt in and have a quick chat :D

People love to see the old cars out and about and reminisce about what they and/or their dad had years ago, and that's all part of the fun for me :cool:

Yes, I did and it was a great day!
I'm uploading photos from the show at the rate of about five cars a day. Check them out here:

I think there were about 25 Capris there, everything from a 1.6 JPS to a Perana. :D
