Hey guys! Just after a little favour if anyone is local.
Through a pretty incredible turn of events that'll all be revealed in due course, i'm in need of a small favour in the shape of someone popping over to look at a very nice 3.0 S Capri for me, if at all possible. I've seen loads of photos of it and it should be a minter, but obviously there's nothing better than someone with the ability to give it a poke!
Me being all the way down in Essex just makes viewing a little tricky. If I go up there i'll be buying a one-way ticket and driving the thing home. Will happily cover a beer or three, or meet you for one when I come for it!
Any help would be amazing, reply in here or pm me..
Cheers! Matt
EDIT: removed my number now we're kinda sorted...

It's this one; www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/ford/capri/genuine-and-rare-ford-capri-3-0s-1979/1254568Been chatting to the seller for the best part of a week and seen a pretty extensive set of photos which i'm really impressed with, viewing's just a bit of a technicality but obviously one i'd like to take care of before heading up there! It's not your standard buying-a-car circumstances either, but all will be revealed as and when i can. Think Daveyboy20's come through as the hero he is, so we might well be sorted.

All I can say is well done Matt. You lucky, lucky .............
Looking forward to it all unfold. This one does look like a cracker and the price is spot on ;-)

I've chatted to him a lot and thought he was a really genuine bloke, always nice to have that backed up though. Hopefully Dave can get over there tomorrow evening for me which is great. Baron, cheers
