The car is described as 'totally original' and in an original state, with original features, including pepperpot alloys, 'Reactor' interior, and a sunroof that works without leaks. The car has been washed but not detailed or messed with, according to the vendor. However, it is an older vehicle with 81,000 miles and has not been inspected in person, so a rating better than 'Very Good' cannot be confirmed without inspection.

Ford's Capri was launched at the 1969 Brussels Motor Show.
The fastback Coupe was intended to do for Europe what the Mustang had done for the USA - i.e.
it was our 'pony' car, and would have been called Colt had Mitsubishi not claimed the moniker first.
The monocoque body featured independent front suspension by MacPherson strut and a live axle with leaf springs at the rear.
Worthwhile improvements came with the MkII models of 1974 and the quadruple headlamp MkIII cars introduced in 1978.
Then in 1981, the venerable 3-litre Essex-engined variant was dropped in favour of the 2.8 Injection model - a single-car range powered by the lusty fuel-injected 2.8-litre Cologne V6.
Power rose to 160bhp and, soon after launch, the old four-speed gearbox was replaced with a more contemporary five-speed one.
Ford now had a stylish four-seat Coupe with performance capable of shaming rivals costing four times the money - it could hit 60mph in 7.8 seconds and top 130mph flat out.
