Lovely motor, if I had a Capri it would have to be the silver grey 3.0 S from the professionals!

Yeah I don't believe you had 2.3 mk3's in the UK.

Yeah it's cracking little engine with about 120bhp as standard. It doesn't have a lsd though.

Cheers pal yeah that's right I still have that little mk2 fezz. I also used to have a matt gray mk6 escort I took to ford fair, I sold that and bought a xr3i. How you been this past couple of years?
