Re: Capri V8

Re: Capri V8

Guys, I went to have a look at the Capri. It looks much better in person than on the photo's! Normally it is the opposite, sure you have experienced the phenomenon :evil: The vehicle is in very good nick overall, engine sounds like a demon. I was wrong in assuming it is a Cressida box, it is a Supra...

Re: Capri V8

Thank you gentlemen, I am not going to purchase the vehicle, but would consider a swop with this owner for one of mine. I know it looks a bit rough on the interior, not my taste, but that can be changed. The guy is going to bring the car over this afternoon, will do a good scrutineering before I dec...
