Re: Nice eBay 2.8i
Just seen this on KFC web site , https://youtu.be/MOp2xNXR3xU
I could have bought one of these in 92 using my grandads ford employees discount and Marie made me move house . I would have kept the Capri as it was used for work ,and Marie would have used this .
Don’t get me going when we had kids as I was going for the first child born in 2000 “ Marie was 12 days late these woman just don’t know how easy they have it . OMG “ the first thing said when I went to work there goes your dream car .....
but 3 kids later and the dog , cat & fish I got my Capri back again ..... happy days .

Strong money, but a very nice car...And low miles, low owner and original paint/bodywork are what many people want so will pay more for them.Jasonmarie wrote:So that big question how much are our cars worth ? Look what this made https://www.classiccarauctions.co.uk/fo ... -2-0-laser

Cars like this are always a good guide to value your own car for insurance purposes

Re: Nice eBay 2.8i
My agreed value runs for 2 years and states that if the form or pics I sent in are misrepresented, then they will be revoked and I will only get the market value.Jasonmarie wrote:Madness really I will have a chat with nick and see what he is going to do .

The car was insured with the same company by the previous keeper, and quite a considerable amount more than I paid for it and the current value....Nice to know I should have no trouble increasing it next time or before if required

Yes roll on Springtime and get out and about
