    :DI'm looking for a Ford Capri for my fiancee, he's a mechanic but hasn't been working on cars for a good while (take the jobs ya can get!) but he really misses fixing up cars and his little projects. Any year, any colour, if you know where I can get one or even a similar type of car please, please let me know...
    A couple of snags, i've spent most evenings trawling the internet and car mags but can't find one thats suitable for repairing within my budget which brings me to my second snag, my budgets about E1500..
    Thanks for Reading! :)

    Okay, in Carlow myself. Have an '82 Capri GT4 1600.
    Its in bits & pieces in various sheds & is part restored already.
    Your boyfriend would need to be handy with a welding torch/spraygun etc with this one though.
    I took it on, mainly cos it's a rare model & almost uniquely for a Mk3 Capri, it's on the original type Irish plates.
    I'm not THAT into selling it, but for the right money AND the right buyer, a deal could be done.
    Intrested?

    1500 wont get you much apart from trouble with a capri. spend more, buy a more solid example (IMO of course)
