Question Anyone know a good Ford Capri website?

Trying desperately to re-capture some of my yoof, I have 'treated' myself to a Capril 1.6 Lazer as a run around.

I've looked at Google and other search rooms for a decent Capri website but to no avail. Especially one with a BBS site as I need to sort out the non-existent ICE.

Any suggestions?

Cheers

Great stuff matey! Owned many a caa-pri my time and think that they are grand. Wait till it rains then take it for a spin! absolutely fantastic RWD action! A bit fat and heavy mind you, but the 2.8 is a hoot.

The only ford board that I know of to be any good is passionford.com but they don't go into capris I think Capri280.com if it's still going is pretty good though

I had a couple of 3.0L Capri's and loved them, the handling on them is quite interesting especially in the wet (well at least i know how to deal with over-steer now ), all you need now is a copy of the professionals theme on the stereo and your away.

I seem to remember fitting the stereo in our kid's 2.8....the hole in the dash is too small for modern radios isn't it? I seem to think we hacked it about a bit and fitted summat in the original place. I also seem to remember hacking the door cards in bits to fit some speakers in there and then we made a new parcel shelf for the rears.

All in all I seem to remember it being more hassle than it was worth, especially as he only ever drove with the windows down listening to his twin zorsts, with the stereo turned off!

He still has the car though it hasn't turned a wheel in quite some time
