Wow old memories for me , not this exact car(maybe it is i dunno lol ) but an identical one silver n 7 spokes . It was my first real encounter with a Sporty ford i was 7 and fell in love with the v6 on standard exhausts and its style , i even mentioned it on here before when i was younger hanging about with a couple of brothers 13 & 16 pinching the BRAND NEW car for joyrides

I love this albeit expensive but if i was silly rich i,d buy instantly

£24k on the clock, Capri prices have gone up rapidly over the past 12 months. They used to be the much cheaper alternative to MK1/2 Escorts. They still are a fair bit cheaper, but good ones are starting to catch up.

It will sell without too much difficulty.

Lovely honest car , there is not many this original about but thats at a price.

You can buy Capri's just as good and honest for 4-6K

Do you want to pay the Extra 6k just because the car has only 24,000 miles ??

It will most likely end up in a collectors garage

i guess people like this that buy cars to keep in a garage for years think they are going to make money,
while mooching about on ebay last week, i found a seller with a 1994 6,000 mile metro knightsbridge, wtf he must be sick wanted £1,500

a chap that i was working with recently was talking about his prized car, wait for it ................ a 1977 morris marina 1.3 deluxe in russet brown wtf he's had it years, it's had a recon motor, whats the point it's a heap of shite
