Welcome to LEC and good luck with the search for the right car. Perhaps update your profile t show your location that way any LEC members close by can assist in the search and give some welcome advice on prospective cars

No Problem Neil, happy to help out a new member with some of my experiences, good and bad
Nice to have another Northerner close by to share the good times with and cry with over the bad times

Joking aside, well done for stepping up to the plate Rob.
Not meaning to be patronising or anything, but It's definitely good to talk, and to share ownership experiences.
There are always positive and negative points with different cars, so it can serve as a bit of a motivator to spot and then bring the dodgy bits up to scratch.
Also if either of you have suspect parts and are within striking distance of one-another, I've found that swapping bits to pinpoint (or eliminate) faults can be extremely useful.

I am starting to get more experienced with this model and having done a few jobs on mine now I can (I Hope) add some value should the need arise

Welcome from a (sometimes) Northerner, good luck in your search.

Which Capri? Essex or Cologne?
