That's a nice ego boost, and well deserved, whichever of your Capri fleet it relates to !
I'd be careful about telling them your address though, Peter....

You've clearly just written that yourself, no effort to even hide the pen! You big prima donna.

I'd also be very wary of that.
The only notes I get left on the car cost me money. :banghead:

This reminds me of the time I was driving my capri down a dual carriageway on the inside lane, now ignoring the fact a white van was overtaking me in the outside lane but as I look over the passenger is holding up a paper sign against the window asking me “how much for the capri?”

As I’m literally driving it.

Definitely one of the strangest places I’ve had someone offer to buy my car, for future reference trying to buy the car while the person is inside it actively driving it down the road is not the best move.

If you really want to buy my capri the best time is when I’m sat in a lay-by or side of the road trying to figure out the latest engine problem.
