3.0S on carandclassic

Post by Pas28i »

This looks really good ...perhaps one to grab before a dealer does?

:agree: Andrew.
If you had deep pockets and a nice big storage area, that car along with the 3 below would mean you probably had 4 of the best V6 Capris left :D

Looks good. I do think that the prices are coming down a bit of late, with the show season starting I would expect them to start and go up a bit but it appears not. They are certainly static if nothing else

A lot of these cars have been around a while now so maybe the prices have topped out, or Capris have fallen out of favour.....Interesting to see what happens over the summer months.

It's a little detail, but it makes the car look so much better in the photos.

Hi Andrew

Yes I certainly think it is, I've been looking for a very late 3.0s in black for years and finally this came on the market. As always with people like us there are things to do but it's a genuine matching numbers car with what I believe to be genuine mileage. The engine is tight and performs just as it should, it's a joy to drive. Body is solid with two small areas found to date that need attention, it's had paint down both sides at some point which I'm not happy with but will sort that at a later date as I'm enjoying driving the car for this year at least....

Best regards
Des
