Nice Mk1 For Sale.
Hi All,
This Ebay listing caught my eye. It's the gold medal winner in the nk1 concours competition at the Nationals in 2016. It's a stunning condition car, although the colour won't be to everybody's taste.

Here are my photos of the car from the event.

I'm not surprised. It seemed like a reasonable asking price for such a stunning condition car.
Do you have a hotline to KGF or something? You always seem up to date with their current stock.

A good point, and I think that's the key to selling. KGF appear to put a lot of effort into presenting and photographing their cars.
Have a great Christmas,
Andrew.

Re: Nice Mk1 For Sale.
If only it was a better colour although I see quite a few new cars are now available in what I call "Battleship Grey".
Really needs the period Rostyle wheels on it too.

Hi,
Although the colour is nice enough, it doesn't make the car stand out from the crowd. That may not be a bad thing.

Re: Nice Mk1 For Sale.
Hi yes I like this capri mk1 as well my favourite mk1 capri's are the pre facelift ones as they have cleaner lines to the facelifted ones. Acquired colour though also I'm a big fan of kgf classic cars and have followed their work for years and the cars they sell. They are really dedicated to what they do as you can tell with the photos and the detailed description of the cars on their web site and even the detailed videos they do on YouTube of every car they sell. Only problem is trying to arrange a viewing at their unit as twice now I've tried to go and have a look round kgf classic cars and both times the 2 chaps that run it have been out collecting cars or viewing cars. I try and go there when I'm staying at my nans in Cambridge as there based in Peterborough which isn't far but its difficult to get your foot in the door. I wish one day I can finally go there and not get fobed off.

I agree with you about the preferring the pre facelift car to the later version.
Try arranging a viewing in advance with KGF. They can't fob you off if you've got an appointment, as they should organise their other obligations around you. I wouldn't mind having a nosey around their place either, they do get some really nice cars in.
