2 Buy or not 2 Buy
Ive been offered the 2nd 2.8i that was imported into Ireland the car has been owned since new buy the owner of a highly respected injection specialist in Ireland. the car appeared 2 be in reasonably good condition it has 180,000 on the clock and Ive been told that it needs a new engine.Its a 1980 2.8i with black dash and choclate brown checkered recaros. I currently own a 2 laser (off the road) in very good condition but being a capri fanatic I dont know if I should buy this car. The asking price is IR£950ono. so should I continue 2 modify my 2lt or buy this 2.8i. Im only 20
Well, to be honest...
...I would stick to your Laser.
Reasons:
You know what you£ve got there, the Laser being in, as you say, great nick. Who knows what comes to the eye when looking closer. Trust me, I know what I£m speaking of, just look at Pictures / Reader£s Capris #5 Second from bottom, the story of mine is just like that.
And insurance for a 2.8i should be much higher, you being "only" 20.
On the other hand the fun should be higher with a 2.8i, although *TO ME* this wouldn£t weigh up the advantages you have with your Laser.
Only my opinion.
Cheers
