It's a MK2 1.3L. Rare as hens teeth now. I bought a Granada 2.0 litre pinto to put in from a mate, but decided to keep it as stock as possible.

Has an interesting history, which I should put on another thread I think.

I think CCI are still going. I'm in a local hot rod club with many members from the Ipswich Capri club.

   I got a very similar one waiting to go on to the front of my ,mig. Mine fits so tight as well that it probably wouldnt fall off left as it is, and its such a good fit as well. It has been likened to the Steinmetz item. Keith B

Sod the  Omega  ::) ::) ::) where are the pictures of your Capri?  ;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
;D ;D As an ex member of Capri Club International with my old 3.0S, I too homed in on the Capri.  :y At a guess I'd say a MK11 1.6 GL with original Rostyle wheels with chrome rings.  8)
Is Capri Club International still running?  :-\
Plus 1 for the Capri, had loads, love 'em and would have another! Looks like a nice example you have. :y
I was also a CCI member back in '94 -'98???? MK branch...
Had everything from a 1.3 Mk3 to a 2 ltr turbo Cossy Capri.. Wish I kept that one... :-(

Nope, nothing to trim. Just rubbed down a couple of mould lines near the edge that folds behind the front wheel arch on either side and a couple of pimple things here and there.

Mine is quite thick on the top edge either side, and it doesn't follow a straight line either, I think I have a little work on it....
