Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1980 Ford Capri 3.0 Ghia, finished in Solar Gold and retaining many original features, sold for £12,960. Despite being MoT exempt and having a long single-family ownership period, the absence of maintenance history is a notable point for potential buyers.
Condition
7
The car is described as being in handsome overall condition with an excellent interior and a crack-free dash, suggesting good care. However, the lack of maintenance history and the presence of 5 former keepers indicate some unknowns and potential for minor wear that would require some reconditioning.

Description
2994cc petrol, automatic.
This Ford Capri 3.0 Ghia presents in handsome overall condition, with a brown cloth interior and a sunroof.
Finished in Solar Gold (as seen in The Professionals ), it was reportedly Ziebart treated from new and spent 1986 to 2025 in the same ownership, before passing to the owner's widow.
The vendor tells us that it "starts, runs and drives very well" and describes it as a "highly original example with a crack-free dash, original stereo, original strut top plates, excellent interior and a good parcel shelf".
The odometer shows 73,651 miles.
No maintenance history accompanies the car, though it comes with previous and current V5Cs showing 5 former keepers.
It was first registered in May 1980, and is therefore exempt from Mo
T testing requirements.
