'Capri 2.0 GL Automatic'



This car was bought in a hurry to get mobile again following the trashing of the red Capri prevoiusly stolen, as I was living in digs now you can imagine the delight of my landlady having a wrecked red Capri and a blue Capri well passed it's sell by date. I spent a week swapping all the good bits from the red one over to the blue one to bring it up to a useable condition, this car was my trusty servant for near on 18 months before it finally gave way to a newer Capri. This one's history was completely uneventful and nothing really happened to it; save the fact it saw me through the transition of living in digs to moving in with my new girlfriend; I suppose that's eventfull enough.

I advertised this car in the window of the local newsagents and it actually sold, I thought that those adverts were only for customers amusement while queing up to pay for your sweeties; but there you go they do work; sometimes.
