Two Mk 1 Capris? The one on the right looks like a Capri to me, except lights look too small. One on the left doesn't look like a Capri except the bonnet bulge which is very much like a Mk 1 Capri...

Both Mk1 Capris I think, right one without the bumper looks like a pre facelift based on the headlights and the left one looks like a facelift without any.

MK1's initially only got the power bulge in 3 litre form, until the facelift when they all got it, along with Pinto engines for the lower engines sizes, double height rear lamps, different interior, smaller dummy intakes and different wheels, never thought they looked as good.

Mk1 Capri headlamps are perfectly square. With a pronounced ridge on the bonnet. This looks to slope, somewhat. Get a picture of a MK1 Capri and put it next to that. I either needed glasses or it's not the same at all.

Obviously you'll have to view the house now, with a detailed inspection of any outbuildings...

FWIW, I think they're different cars, the one one the left is a Capri, and the other one... isn't!

Capris - bonnet length and headlight give away
