Crystal green 4speed 2.8 and black 3.0S

This looks like a nice injection with low mileage and all original...

Then there’s this black 3.0S

Lovely cars both of them but just think that for the price of them added together you could buy a house in some parts of the country!

Great looking Capri's, amazing that these low mile cars keep surfacing. Just as amazing prices too as Paul said :o , it was only a few short years back that outstanding 280's were surprising everyone at this price. Want them both :wub:

Both nice cars.

Re 2.8; My Mk3 Escort was that colour, I didn't know they made the Capri in it though :o
Being in NI will put some people off though. I have bought from there twice, and although delivered you are on edge until it's with you.

Hi,
As said, two very nice cars there.
I like crystal green 2.8s, but I prefer them to be two tone with forest green.

Andrew.

Good spot on that Crystal Green car, looks really nice but I'm with you the two tone looks better, one of my favourite colours none the same.

I've heard people say green cars are unlucky :?

3 of us that worked together in the mid 80's all had Crystal Green Mk3 Escorts, we all had a smash within about a month of each other..... :shock:

Damn. I best get it repainted! Maybe it was the month that was unlucky and not the colour.
