How come a D reg capri is old skool....

[X-pack-Glyn]

and a y reg sierra isnt?

 

Both RWD and both pinto..

 

yet the later car is old skool and the earlier one isnt???

 

makes no sense.

[rudel]

I too agree, makes no sense at all i also think the mk2 fiesta is also exempt for no reason in my opinion and that is it all it is is my opinion before i get attacked...

You know the answer Glyn, it's been coverd numerous times on the forum.

 

I'll say it again though in case anyone missed it.

 

Capris were first available in or before 1980, Sierras were not. Simple

 

 

AND it's the rules of THIS site. Not that anyone else can't have an opinion, but It's Darrens site/forum/club and that's he decided from day 1

[X-pack-Glyn]

ok then... cant argue with that one.

 

but surely they become of an age where they become oldskool... i mean mk2 fiestas whilst not considered on the forum as old skool id say defo are old skool now, and mk1 jelly moulds gota be getting that way...

 

thing is we come from an era where you would use old skools as a daily, but not so much anymore.. how many of us have a kind of in between as a daily (sierras and late granadas).

Jelly moulds and mk2 fiestas are plasticy and dull with no soul.

cant go by this rule as the escort was made even earlier than the capri and if this was the rule then there would be plastic escorts on here and also mk3 granada`s as well

i cant believe this has been keeps getting brought up, my rule of thought is if you can remove the bumpers and still have a body left then its retro if you cant then it aint
