Yes I saw that Andrew.
It was on a Capri Facebook page a day or so before that too.
Deposit taken on this car.
Nice car but I wonder if it's TV appearance had anything to do with a fairly quick sale
It might be more to do with a book that come out last year about the Pinto being the Best Engine In The World
JM I don't read fiction

What a waste of a perfectly good Capri.

Glad it's not just me - I really don't get these kits at all

It’s a cheap way to drive around like “ James Bond 007 “

It does make you wonder who buys these cars... It looks like a very nice example, but how could you not know the lights are on upside down? Let alone the fact that it's obviously not a late Mk2 when it looks completely different to the year before

Bloody hell, I can understand if someone can't read, but how can you not know how to look at a picture?

Tom, as a blind man I find this very offensive

The early mark 3 Capris were still being registered as "Capri II", and that's probably where the seller has become confused.

Yes I just spotted that , only done 1000 miles , I bought my first house in 1989 for 44k and would have never thought a Capri would sell for that .
Now I wonder if in say 3 years that car will sell for over the 100k Mark . As the way classic cars are selling I can see this .

Actually 942 miles JM
It sold at auction a few years ago for 54k on 936 miles, doubt it will ever reach 1000
If it does sell it is basically an ornament, any miles it will depreciate so may as well buy a 1:18 scale to look at alot cheaper
Mad money but it might pave the way for other low mile Capris.
