Looking for Black MK3 1.6/2l

Post by Fiona50 »

Hey! I'm new here, nice to meet you.

I'm looking for a Black Capri MK3 1.6/2L for my next car and was wondering if anyone had any they were looking to sell. If you know of any then please respond with price, location and condition.

Been around all the car selling sites and looking for any possible beauties I may have missed.

Many Thanks,
Fiona

Hi Fiona & welcome to the forum.
Find one with the best bodywork you can afford i.e. minimal rust. Engine & suspension are relatively easy fixes if they need work but a few rust bubbles on the surface can mean big welding costs & too much time off the road. Plenty posts on this site of which bits to watch out for.
Let us know how you get on with your search.

Do you only like black ones or will a white one do?

Hi Fiona,
Welcome to the forum. I can't offer any information or advice except keep trawling through the classifieds, cars for sale sites and Ebay. The car of your dreams is out there somewhere! :)

Has it been resprayed white or is it the original white paint work?

Only ask because black ages better, in my opinion anyway, whereas the white fades

Can you send any pictures and any prices?

Hi Fiona,

If you've won the lottery, have you seen the black laser on Car & Classic?

Good luck with your car search,
