    I did think I could have been interested in this, but thought about it too long and got beat to the post.
    This would have come from my local Ford dealer (Premier Ford) on the Isle of Wight.

    Probably going by the different shades of green on the outside, similar to the coloured sand they have over there?

    We used to have unique registrations over here before dvla changed it too HW which is for all of Hampshire. But we used too have DL which would indicate a IOW car from a mainland car.

    A DL reg used to get you preferential treatment on the ferry in the summer...

    Unfortunately due to ongoing restoration of another 2 Escorts, this Capri has been moved to the back of the queue and is regretfully back up for sale again.
    The Capri is in restoration workshops in Stockton on Tees and will soon find it's way onto Thiefbay.

    Having been deep cleaned and the shell partially stripped, engine and gearbox removed, not a lot has changed.
    I initially intended 'Xpacking' the car and have sourced a number of panels which can be bought by separate negotiation if required:
    Genuine Fibresport kit (Ford RS logo on front wings and rear quarters)
    NOS passenger side door
    Mint condition driver side door
    Mint condition bonnet
    Mint condition rear hatch
    Mint non-sunroof roof panel

    This is a genuine black 3.0S Capri with 74,000 miles from new, there are receipts for engine work at around 70,000.

    £4000 for the Capri
    Spares by negotiation if purchaser has an interest.

    The spares will be listed separately once Capri is sold.

    Can you pm me in the 1st instance as I'm on holiday at the moment. The car can be viewed in Stockton on Tees and I will forward Neil's number where requested.

    Cheers, Mark

    Having issues with private messaging it would appear.

    Colin, I replied early Friday morning to pm received, likewise John although assume the 2 I sent, you received.
    I tried sending pictures to email address provided Terry but keeps getting bounced back, no response from you via pm's so unsure if you're aware.

    Can you please email me now regarding Capri, email address as follows:

    Going down Thiefbay route ..... once idiots and scammers calm down a bit.

    Hopefully find it a good home soon.

    It might have sounded suspect being in Turkey on holiday, living in Fife and the car being in Stockton on Tees ........ and leaving the restoration company to deal with sale, in hindsight things do look a little complicated. My apologies folks and thanks for the enquiries in any case.

    Looks like a good base for a restoration, good luck with the sale.
