Trooker Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 This look like a decent base for someone after a car for shows https://angliacarauctions.co.uk/classic/sat-6th-sun-7th-november/1987-opel-manta-executive-25-170-miles-from-new/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutty2006 Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 Very nice that is. I just don’t know how people can step into a Capri when these beauties are out there 😍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Pounsett Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 I like that too. If my lottery numbers come up tonight I’ll stick in a bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike. Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 (edited) Is this the same one that was for sale last year? Edited October 16, 2021 by Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monaco Blue Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 "Four former keepers are noted on the V5C, with the last owning it since 1988." One wonders how many miles it did in the first 2 years given it had 3 owners in that brief time. And who would paint the rear apron with black underseal! I thought that died out with Mk3 Cortina's and the like. Still wearing Goodyear Eagle NCT's. They must be a good age now. Still looks worth a punt though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No its a different car from last year, That was fully up and running, road leagal and had covered 40k from new, was owned by a guy called Richard. I dont know this car, could be a nice car but needs looking at in the flesh after being dormant for so long, 15 years off the road is a long time.

Great so see more and more low mileage examples coming up, like the cobwebs, in engine bay, a real good detail of engine bay, and a full valet on door cards, as they do clean up well. Would be worth losing the 80s two tone look, and reverting everything to original and a good clean. Anyone remember what the last one above went for last year?

It sold for £22.600 inc premiums but that was a pretty mint car. I dont think this one is the same standard. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
