Better Luck Next Time! I have to admit that this incident put me off Capris for a while. After a few weeks however I was on the look out again. Eventually I spotted my new car at Booth and Phipps in Bicester, Oxon. It was a gorgeous D-reg 2.0 Litre LASER Capri in Diamond white. The mileage was a mere 40K and I immediately got this verified by the previous owner who was very helpful. The car was priced at £3495 which was at the top end of the price range. Compared to the previous Capri this was the business. It had 4 spoke alloy wheels, electric aerial, sunroof, 5 speed gear box & a decent sound system. I went for a test drive and fell in love with 'her' straight away. The twin choke Weber carb. made a huge difference to the performance and the newer car handled the curves better. The main problem now was the price which was more than I had budgeted for. After some haggling, I got the dealer to give me £1500 for the Escort. This was amazing because I had only paid £1100 for it 18 months ago! As a footnote, they re-sold the Escort for £2495 a few weeks later but I had to admit that they had tarted it up nice. Who said cars don't go up in value ! |
