Good example of an early 2.8 Capri; subtlety enhanced & sounds absolutely fantastic. Owned for the last 6 years; bought from North Shore Capri specialists in December 2004.
• Early 1982 2.8i cologne engine on an X plate with 4 speed manual gearbox • Two tone metallic Grey over silver • Full Brooklands leather interior in excellent condition (inc door cards, steering wheel etc) • Five 15” genuine ford Brooklands alloy wheels • Thatcham category one alarm immobiliser • Remote central locking • Full stainless Janspeed exhaust • K&N filter • Sony CD / MP3 head unit • Stainless steel dashboard trim / white dials • Removal of rubber side trimmings and wing aerial rust traps (electric one inside car) • Full 12 months MOT expires 11th August 2011, Taxed till 31/07/2010 • Serviced April 2010 including full flush of coolant • 46,600 miles (though probably 146,000 as no history prior to owning) • Arches and underneath very solid • Dashboard is not cracked and the heater works!
