[Omega man 2]

"If only I had the money!"

You could always go down the docks doing favours for sailors

[smoothomega]

I admit i didn't look to closely at the advert, it isnt all it appears, just got he memories going, i had a MK1 3000 GLX capri many moons ago and it was massive fun, that was replaced by a MK 2 RS 2000, 186 BHP pinto on twin 48 webbers, straight cut rocket box, LSD etc etc, i spent every spare moment and bit of cash on that car, in its day (23 years ago) there was next to nothing that would live with it upto 100 mph and it went round corners like a rocket slid on rails, i only wish i had have kept it

I bet you do it would have been worth a few quid now, but I reckon everyone of us could say the same

If only we had a crystal ball, the capri and RS would be worth a mint now,

Thats got 1 to many zeros on the price for an orange crapi....

Eactly what I thought. But have a look at Mk I Escorts too, they're priced the same.  :-?

[Elite Pete]

The colour will match your fake tan old chap

[Vamps]

Wrong colour and not Tax Free.
Only Colour for a Capri is 'Daytona Yellow' imho....

3.1 litres and only 115 BHP, haven't we come a long way

[albitz]

115bhp............is 'dangle berries' ....................the old 3-litre Essex lump had 138 bhp................so the rare 3100...............should put out 150 or so.

It was an open secret at the time that Ford used figures from blue printed engines which had been very carefully screwed together,and even then the figures were a bit doubtful.
Tbh 3.0/3.1 Capris were nothing special at the time even in a straight line,and would be dog slow by todays standards.The handling on Capris was atrocious btw.
