Well if he's that old then I'm even more impressed.
It wasn't that long ago I last saw him and the old boy is certainly wearing well!

Re: Famous Capri Owners
As mentioned in another thread, the Yorkshire ripper apparently had a Capri! So, I suppose he should make it onto the list, although more infamous than famous.

Hi,
Tiff Needell apparently owned one in 1980 while he was a F1 driver.

Yeah we recorded this. Starting watching it but as I was home so late we only watched a bit. Watching the rest of it tonight. Looks very good. Some great cars in it.
