1974 Ford Capri Automatic 1.6 petrol

Faults:

Water pump, alternator, battery, rear heated windscreen.

Exhaust (but I guess that does not count).

General Comments:

Well this car has given me the most hassle out of any car I have owned... exactly like a woman but you can not help but love it...

The combination of black vinyl roof, white paint work and chrome makes it a stylish and funky cruiser... you can not say that about a lot of cars.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
