Probes have grown on me I must admit. No Capri, but not bad looking. Should blatantly have had a oval quarter window though.
I'm the one who leaves all those shoes in the carriageway.

A mate had a brand new one in the day, he lent it to me for a weekend away and it was sooooo dull, normally when I am leant a car I have not driven before I enjoy it but it just felt like anything Japanese.
Its plus was it was good on fuel and had Cruise control and A/C.

Great find, Paul.
The video is interesting and, as ever, reading the comments section provides great entertainment!
FWIW, I'm not too keen on the styling of the Probe, although the Cougar looks good. I's no Capri though.... :D
