There are a few interesting Capris for sale on Gumtree at the moment and they reflect a wide range of cars available & their prices.

This is an interesting unfinished project for $23,500 with much of the body work done but without engine & gearbox.

Another project V6 for $15,000 - no engine or gearbox & stripped. Most body parts seem to be there but a pretty optimistic price. Good luck!

This a really nice looking 1600 GT auto for a top price of $44,900. It has been advertised for several months & hasn't left the show room. It is advertised as a GT but several features (dash & engine) would suggest it is a 1600 Deluxe. Is it really worth that much?

Here is another V6 project - a genuine numbers matching car, stripped back in primer with a dismantled engine for $8,500 negotiable. The body doesn't look too bad but the compliance plate is missing. It might be a good project but it would need a thorough inspection, Not sure if all the parts are there so you would need to do your sums!

If you have a spare $99,990, then this is the Capri for you. It looks a really tough unit & has all the good gear for a drag/street car. It also has been advertised for quite a while

Capri - Club Christmas Party

We had our annual Capri Club Christmas break up a few Sundays ago & although it was not a huge gathering we had 9 Capris turnout.  There were four four cylinder models, four V6s & one SA convertible. Anthony's Yellow Fire V6 was awarded the best car & my Jewel Green 1600 Deluxe was judged best 4 cylinder. As the occasion was very close to where I live, I managed to convince my wife to drive my white XL so it was the first club event that I have been able to attend with both my Capris. This may never happened again so I was really pleased to get some photos with them both together.
Happy Christmas to you all & here are a few pictures.
