When I have problems posing images I press the "Source" button above and then paste the link inbetween [img] & [/img] tags. Works fine for me.
I only had a 1.6L Mk I Capri. No airfield photos though. I was going to post the Cortina photo as a reply to your previous, when I realised it had an aircraft visible behind it. I do have 4 more airfields with Lotus cars in them

A few years ago their resident Victor was taken out for a 'fast taxy run' on the 10.000ft runway and 'inadvertantly' got airborne!!
Yeah I believe that don't you?

Hi Chevvron. No, nowhere quite as tropical as Martinique. This place is closer to the Arctic Circle than it is to the Equator. Photograph was taken on descent into the attic.
I will duck into PPRuNeland every now and again during the day to check on progress...

Caution: thread drift. Many years ago I too had a Mk 1 3 litre Capri. Went very well in a straight line, but didn't like corners or stopping. as a glutton for punishment I then had a Mk 2 Scimitar, also with aforesaid 3 litre Essex engine - same problems...
Years ago I tried to hire a Fiat 124 but when I arrived to collect it, there wasn't one available so initially they gave me a Crapi 1.6. The windows didn't wind up to the top of the door, there was a constant one inch gap at the top and when I opened the boot, there was a couple of inches of water in there (about 5,000 miles o the clock). I finally got my Fiat after a couple of days and apart from the superior build quality (although I realise now the body would have rotted away after about 5 years) was amazed at the superior performance of its 1.2 l engine over the 1.6 l Crapi.
