Well done on the mag feature, cars looking good.

Nice car, nicely done. tbh can't understand the numberplate choice but that's upto the owner.

pity its only a 2 litre I hope he isnt going to drive on UK roads with those illegal number plates at a risk of being offensive/blunt.....cock off. If you've nothing positive too say about someones car don't bother saying anything. Constructive criticism is all well and good but theres no need for that. |

As blunt as the end of a gondolists pugel - and rightly so! Nice one Copey, it looks really good looking forward to having a read of that  |

Next you'll be telling us to 'throw a bag of cement in the boot because they oversteer' or some such Capri-based myth. Chris It's no myth.... Capri's do oversteer but so do all RWD cars. It's what makes them 10 x the fun of a FWD car. Give me RWD over torque steering FWD's any time. |

No, you misunderstood. It's myth because a Capri is more prone to understeer, not oversteer! I never said it won't oversteer.  Again, top work Tom. It was a pleasure featuring the car! Chris |

.. and then they seems to rather like that, but have a curse word amount of steering lock, and that isn't a myth unfortunately... so not "gr8 4 drfitin!" but still rather fun on the odd wet roundabout. Congrats on the feature by the way, already said i like this car a lot in your other thread

Makes me wish I still had my Diamond white laser , car is a credit to ya copey lad. Very tastefully modded , the black bits are a lovely contrast to the white... nice to see youve resisted the temptation to throw coloured bits at it. And as for the 2.1 pinto... man thats a very respectable powerplant! (I'm biased... thats what mine had. lol). |
