Ford Capri 2.8i special

Post by CobraR »

For sale is a Ford Capri 2.8i special with just 51,303 on the clock (confirmed by MOTs)

The car starts and runs first time with an MOT until May 2018 and has no known faults.

Engine is spot on and has just had the waterpump changed.

The interior is the sort after grey half leather recaros which as you can see from the photos are starting to wear in the bolster areas.

Bodywork - the car is very solid with minimal rust, however the paint work is poor and will require a respray to make the car perfect. I will get this arranged myself if the car doesn't fetch a decent amount, but thought id offer it out in this condition first as the new buyer may want to go for a different colour.

Collection Peterborough, Cambs.

Hi Ryan,
If I was you, I'd sell the car as is. You could pour thousands of pounds into a restoration, and that's fine if you intend to keep the car, but it's unlikely to increase the value of the car by as much as you've spent.

Off topic, but I'm curious. I notice that you are able to link to your Photobucket photos. Have you paid the extortion fee........I mean the subscription charge? :) I only ask because most people I know have stopped using Photobucket and use free alternatives instead.

Good luck with the sale, by the way.

Andrew.

Cheers for your advice Andrew- yes those were my thoughts too.

And regarding photobucket... No I haven't paid anything as far as I'm aware!!
I did see people talking about extortionate amounts, but I've not signed up to anything and it still seems to work OK!

Cheers,
Ryan

Hi John,
I've not seen your speed wagon cruising just yet... But I have however spotted a nice Capri laser parked up on Meadway, Market Deeping if that person is on here?!?

Over the past few years I've been re-building a black 2.8i with my old man from scratch, and I purchased this burgundy 2.8i to use as a reference car for whenever I was scratching my head about where certain parts needed to go etc.

So It comes with a decent amount of paperwork but isn't FSH.

I'm in no rush to sell especially considering the value of this car will no doubt continue to rise as time goes on, but id be happy with £5k.
