Bit Optimistic IMO;
Quote; Guide range: £25,000-27,000 - please contact Classics Central on 0800 122 3335 or visit http://www.classicscentral.co.uk to discuss this motor car. End quote

And Quote; Of particular note are the excellent bodywork and engine bay, making this injection Capri an enthusiast’s dream. End Quote

If they think that Engine Bay is Clean they need to look at Andrews and a few others on here....... :o

Perhaps it comes with a suitcase containing £20,000 in the boot! :D

Very nice of you to say so Andy, thanks, but mine is nowhere near as clean as Nick's, for example.

I can't deny that the 2.8 Capri is an enthusiast's dream, but I can't see it making more than £7,000 tops at auction.

All the best,
Andrew.

The engine bay is not perfect but looks very original, it even looks like the wings are original. For its originality it will probably make this car very desirable, however a little effort from the seller in the engine bay area could make it look a lot better.

Guide range £25,000 to 27,000 :shock: Why are they selling it so cheap then?? Perhaps I should snap it up before someone else does :roll:

Hi,
It will be interesting to see if it sells for the estimate.It still seems a little high to me.

That's what being a Perfectionist does to you :lol:
My XR has now got the Door Cards and Boot Trim removed for the Waxoyl Treatment...... I hate taking good stuff apart although prevention is better than cure, but I wont be happy until its all back on the car and the fixings not stored in a box :(
