You’ll have to get a snap for us, Sam! (If there isn’t already one on here somewhere, I guess!). If you can find a camera in 1973 A camera shouldn't pose a problem. He put a telly up in The Railway Arms not so long back. Bloody mad! Gene Genie.

You’ll have to get a snap for us, Sam! (If there isn’t already one on here somewhere, I guess!). If you can find a camera in 1973 I'll have to have a word with our youngest. She took some pictures from upstairs of me talking to the owner with his car in our driveway a few years back. At the time he had some panels on it in grey primer after some repairs. A camera shouldn't pose a problem. He put a telly up in The Railway Arms not so long back. Bloody mad! Yes I think I started a bad trend, can't go in to any pub now without poxy football appearing on three or four large screens dotted around the gaff and b***ocks'ing up any hope of a good chinwag and p***-take. Sam.

Had this 13k miles from new Capri in at work for a couple of weeks for an engine bay freshen up.

That's an absolute peach BG! Original plates by the look of it as well. Thanks for posting the photo Gene.

Nice motor BG, thanks for posting. I've never owned a Capri but I aim to put that right one day (along with the mk3 and mk4 Cortina … and … and … ) Sam

Me neither Sam. Though it would have to be a Mk1. As nice as this one is I think the shape is a bit bland compared to the lines of the Mk1.

Wow. That is a beauty! And crazily low mileage! Although I suppose that at this point they have to be like that or they'd have dropped to bits long ago.
On a boring, practical note, I don't think it would be much fun creeping out from a blind corner with a bonnet that size!

Is the bonnet longer than a Cortinas or does it just look that way? No rude answers!
