Capri 2.0 laser, some modern upgrades
Hi chaps, had an interesting car booked in at work and the jobs been given to me, it's a Capri 2.0 laser and it's stunning! Got to take the gearbox out and it's being rebuilt with uprated gears (apparently?) and I've to fit a new carburettor and a modern stereo system. I'll add some pics when I start it on Monday!

I remember driving one my mate paid a grand for, spent more time looking out the side windows than the front. He sold it to some girl for 20 quid with a full tank as we all kept cracking jokes at it, he lost out big time with that one

Well if the customer finds out gets the hump and demands something to be done what will your boss do?
I could post pics of allsorts of exoctic cars but the owners would not be pleased.
I went out for a test drive and dropped a customers car off to be followed by my work mate in another car only to find a pic of me getting into it on facebook.....then my other mate finding it and sent me the pic car was a bugatti eb110...

Work on stuff like that everyday. I can see now why the old boys I know who used to be mechanics back in the day struggled
