Apologies for the sounds quality at the start I need a better radio mic! It gets better when I take it off though. About time I got a Capri on the channel and looking forward to getting more done on it, parts have already started to arrive 😅

Regardless of engine size , these cars are an absolute pleasure and treat to see on the UK roads. Very nice attractive body shape. No wonder today they are going and making a absolute fortune.

In 1987, my Dad took me out of primary school for 'a laugh', picked me up in a red Capri, took me to the petrol station, bought a packet of smarties and a king-size Mars (which I took), then took me to buy a Mountfield Lawnmower. It was such a cool day and how he got that massive new Mountfield into the boot I have no clue. He owned the Capri for about a week and that is my only memory of it. Good stuff!

It amazes me how calm and positive you sound even when there are great problems at hand. Keep it up🤝

The Capri was my favourite car when I was a kid back in the early 80s. I would love to have one now, they are beautiful looking cars.

What can I say, you can do as many Capri episodes as you like, I've had a mk2, an immaculate one owner 2.0s, a 2.8 injection,a 3.0 ghia and a highly modified 3.0s and loved them all,I could watch you all day long,just so enjoyable and entertaining, best wishes to you Ben.

This has made me smile. I sort of took Capris for granted in the 80s because they were everywhere, but I'd love one now.
