lol@ Corsa Dave, the only reason why I wouldnt own a Classic car is the amount of time you have to spend repairing the bodywork all the time!
The 2.8 Capri is very nice, take the exhaust off and stick straight through, like my dads kit car and mess with the tickover and they sound very similar to a V8! Nice!

The guy I share our workshop with has a 2.8 Capri stored in there. It needs moving occasionally and there's usually circular rubber patterns in the yard afterwards. Funny that

My next door neighbour in my old house had a 280. Used to park it on rubber mats and take the wheels off to wash it.
