Have had the nod from "Twickers Chic", that she now needs to put her Dad's 2.8i Special up for sale.. Condition hasn't changed that much since those who know it last clapped eyes on it, body work does have a couple of scabs, but in general, the paint is in very good order. Mechanically the engine is sound, has done 97k since new, AND is a one owner from new car. The Alloy's are in v good condition, having been diamond cut & polished not too long ago. Its also had new decals on the boot, & new side stripes too. Tyres have plenty of tread, as does the spare. New front bumper, not original, & front indicators. The LSD does have a whine, I've changed the oil in it & fitted a new gasket, & its a bit better than it was, although not really serious. The half leather seats have been repaired, well the drivers bolster has been, & are in good condition, with no rips. The standard exhaust is blowing around one of the rear silencers, but really would benefit from a Janspeed system..! Parcel shelf is new from CCI, new boot carpet & spare wheel cover. It has a K/N air filter, strut brace & one & a half inch lowering blocks on the rear. All in all, a good honest standard car that hasn't been mucked about with.

No tax (SORN) or MOT, as its not been used for some time, but I can put a new battery on it to get it running.

Would really like it to go to a good home, someone who will look after it as I have, & in the mark's 40th year!

Looking for £1850.00, ono.


Car is now sold.. its going to a very good home...!!

IT'S GOING TOMORROW.........

Can't you buy it? It would get you back into Capri World.

Shame it's got to go matey.
Let's hope it finds a caring owner, good luck with the sale.

Would like to Mags, a) don't have the money, b) nowhere to keep it, c) Twickers Chic doesn't want me to have it anyhoo...!

How about i buy it - and sell it to you
Mate, i was only thinking about you yesterday and wondering how things were and bon de flop there you are..freeeaakkkyy

I'm fine.. that is spooky.. I'll fill you all in next time we meet up.. it is regretable that it does have to go, & in all seriousness I really would have nowhere to keep it darn in the coun'ry, & will have to rent a lock up for it, & these days my life is pretty full as it is..& there is a remote posibility that we may sample life down under in the not to distant future too... but thats a way off yet...

Nice to hear from you Nick

Shame that Mirror Finish has to go
Hope it goes to a good home

Glad you found a buyer for Mirror Finish.

I've been in touch with Pete from the East Grinstead Capri Club, he said it was definitely worth the two and a half trip up from the South Coast to view your Capri.
He has a few plans / mods to make it his 'own', at least it's gone to a Capri enthusiast.
I expect we will see it at a show or two during the summer.

I'm glad its going to a good home too..!

He's already told me his plans, the interior from his blue one will be swapped, as will the wheels, rear springs, & possibly the rear axle too...! Oh to have storage space/garage..............

If you do see it around, make sure to take some pic's.. I've asked Pete to take a few as he's tarting it up..
