SUMMARY

Owned by our vendor from new, the ever popular Brooklands on offer at a very tempting guide.

DESCRIPTION

  • The limited-edition 280 Brooklands was the last iteration of the Capri, bringing to an end a 20-year model lineage
  • Finished in the only colour produced, Brooklands Green, and consequently they have become known as Brooklands Capris
  • Based on the 2.8 Injection Special, the Brooklands was powered by a Cologne V6 engine developing 160bhp with a 5-speed gearbox, limited-slip differential and powered rack and pinion steering
  • Destined to be an instant classic, the Brooklands Capri quickly sold out and they command a significant premium today
  • This astonishing find has been with its one and only owner from new, only showing a change of ownership when it transferred from his business to his personal name
  • Paintwork refreshed some years ago, the interior shows some wear, but offers an opportunity to add value to one of the most desired of all Capris
