Nice looking car that.

Always liked the look of the CRX, Something a bit different to the other small cars at the time and still eye catching now.

Very nice Andy...... I think I guessed correctly :D When I saw it on the KGF site I remembered you mentioning having one before and saying how much you loved the car.
Look forward to seeing it at a show or meet in 2016.

All the best
Neil

Hi Neil,
Yes you were right :applaud:
Its not the same as the KGF CRX, that was the later model this is rarer but still 1.6 16v 125 BHP
It will be out and about in 2016 and I will hopefully get to a Queens Square Meet with it....

Hi Andy,
That's a stunning car, like a lot of the others, I really like the CRX. It's a thumbs-up from me! :D
I think that you were fortunate to find this one as un-molested ones seem to be very rare these days.

All the best,
Andrew.

Hi Andy,
Do what that chap in America did to get in to Ford only shows. Stick a blue oval on the bonnet and claim it was a prototype!

You could take it to Simply then......

Hi Andy.
Small but perfectly formed :D

A lucky find TBH. didn't think I would get one that hadn't been through Halfords bargain bins :lol:
and being a Mk1 too its a bit like Rocking Horse :turd:

Not seen one at any shows I have been to. so hopefully it will attract some interest :)
I'm still a Capri lover though ;) A nice restored 3.0S next to it in a double garage would be great.......Happy Days :lol:
