Fair play, if he likes older cars then a Capper is a great choice (and a Mk1 at that). Just hope its because hes an enthusiast and not because its cool, hip, trendy and a fashion statement like so many celebs think they are. I'd straighten the spotlights though...

Good lad. With those spotlights he'll light up the world like nobody else, something something something something overwhelmed...

The one place in the world I thought it was safe to not have any infiltration of that bilge and it's associated oxygen thieves was here!!
*Rolls eyes*
My life is now officially over!
I fear it is little more than to appear 'cool' but if it is genuine then that's mildly better. (He's still a Twunt tho)

I really wanted a Capri, too Mind you, for 8 large I'd want one with less rust than is shown in that open-door shot! Or at least one that's not white and hides it better...

Bit harsh. I mean, I can't bear his music or any of the plastic manufactured pap that goes with it, but he's only a kid. He's found a way to make loads of cash by doing something he enjoys and, as a result, loads of girls want to bang him. Fair play to him, I say.

It's a cool car, it's a retro car. I had to look up who Harry Styles is, and all I can say about that is fair play to him. There's a million more tacky/horrible (dare I say blingy) cars a modern day 'pop idol' could have gone for. he didn't.
Regardless of his motives (and I really don't care to speculate) he's got good taste.

I don't get the hatred of "manufactured" band members. Yes the music is wibblepoo, but if anybody got offered a curse word load of money to do what they enjoy you'd jump at the opportunity in a flash.
The Capri looks cool, just needs some 17" Torq Thrusts and a Procharger equipped 347ci small block.

Good on him. Being in a naf boy band doesn't define him as an individual. But buying a cool car does, lol

He's obviously got a lot more taste than that idiot footballer who had his Bentley resprayed in a camouflage paint job.

Fair play, I'm sure he could have bought whatever car he wants, kinda like the fact he bought an old Ford. Non car chat, but wasnt he going out with that taylor swift bird lol.

Good luck to him I say! Yeah his music isn't to (most of) our tastes but he bangs hot chicks and and presumably has the finances to buy anything he wants and chooses a Capri! Brilliant! And as for buying it because its 'cool, hip and trendy' wasn't that why Ford made it and why we want one now??

Sheesh. You just can't please some folk on here , can you? Good on the lad. He's done alright for himself, doing something he enjoys, seems a positive guy and bought a cool retro car. Why should he give 2 figs about what gets posted here?
