SUMMARY

Limited-edition Brooklands Capri coming from long-term ownership. Offered without reserve.

DESCRIPTION

  • The limited-edition 280 Brooklands was the last iteration of the Capri, bringing to an end a 20-year model lineage
  • Originally badged as the Capri 500, the name was changed to Capri 280 and some 1,038 examples were ultimately built, with this being number #0069
  • 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 boasted larger 15" alloy wheels and the fully-optioned interior was trimmed in Raven Black leather
  • 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
  • On offer from 23-years ownership, and showing just under 60,000 miles from its five previous keepers, this Brooklands has been stored for a number of years and, although it does start and run, it may require an element of recommissioning
