Well ...... you know the man on the forum to ask if you want one of them.
If I ever get the money together I'll ask for a 24valver with a manaul box & a/c   :y  :y  :y

Who was it that built them over here for Volvo .... Jensen?? The build quality was horrendous, so they took them back to Sweden to build & called it a P1800S  :y

I had one of the last 3.0 Capri's before they changed to the slower 2.8's. Would love one again but doubt I could afford it.
Then again my mate had a new X pack 3.2 that had everything it could as new. When it started up it shook the houses, think he struggled to get double figures per gallon though but that was NICE :)

Jensen had something to do with them IIRC. On the subject of Jensen I wouldn't say no to a 541 or a C-V8. :-*

I'll stick with my Morris Minors thanks :y A recent discussion on the MM forum saying that if they remade the minors they look like the PT cruiser which look awful!
