Ok I have done a search and seen many threads about Capris but just wondered what your thoughts were.
I have seen a mk111 2.0 Capri (manual) locally which has been stored in a dry garage. The owner has asked me to give him an indication of the cars worth, and I may well be interested.
Here are the brief details.
For Capri (1979 I think) 2.0 LS, Red, ???miles, bodywork reasonable cannot see any rot, a few bubbles here and there and the paintwork has faded (T-Cut!) The Interior is the traditional tartan red/orange and black the front drivers seat has unfortunately had ink spilt on it and the rear has a few holes on the top.
I believe the car has been started and moved regularly but the gearbox needs attention. Tickover price for box (2ndhand) is £60
So how much do you think it is worth, provided there is no rot, engine runs without fault and apart from the above is ok.
ALSO
Are there any recommended active forums for Capri owners?

I say get it! It really depends on what you want? It doesnt look rotten at all only the arches which look like they have been done before. Personally i'd buy it. How much does he want for it?
He has asked me what its worth?Having looked on Ebay - a car that runs with no MOT and requires minor work fetches between £200>£300, however the gearbox will definately need replacing and I dont know what the brakes, tyres are like etc.
Would you say £200 is too little?
