Welcome. There are some great ones about at the moment. Have a look at our discussion on the eBay thread, and the Silk Red one that's just been advertised.

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.

Welcome from a (sometimes) Northerner, good luck in your search.
Which Capri? Essex or Cologne?

If you can't be a good example, then you might as well be a terrible warning
