Loved these old 3.0S Capris. Never owned one myself, but an old mate had several. He started with a yellow 1.6S, then a silver 2.0S, both Mk3, and then he got a Mk2 3.0S, followed by a 2.8i and a 280 Special Mk3's again. It was the 3.0S pre injection that I loved out of all of them with it's twin carb induction noise. 👍
Hi there, thanks for your comment, yes I loved the capri's, my Uncle actually had a Mk2 3.0S at the same time I owned that one , the performance of both of them were pretty much dead equal I seem to remember. My Mum's boyfriend also owned a burgundy Mk3 3.0S and he also had a Mk3 3.0 Ghia auto.
Wow!! I know exactly where this is! I also live in dorking and have a Capri! This is a bridge along the back of brockham coming off from punch bowl lane 👌
@@Generalkenobi325 My Mum's BF had a kit on his 3.0s and had a 3.1 engine conversion, spent a fortune. just rotted away in the end. Him and his brother built the engine in the kitchen themselves LOL
@@toothfairy2353 I didn't have the money to change them back then, I made do with what I had. The car wasn't really classed as a classic then, was just a car.

Hi, thanks for watching, I am just glad my home video survived 34 years!
My black 3.0s v reg had the early pepper pot 2.8 inj wheels on
too . Great car great memories 👍🏻😉
I think those wheels looked good, the original wheels were not very wide were they? Thanks for watching.

think you can't get prosecuted for being a dick head because it was 30 odd years ago think again
I was a typical 19 year old lad at the time.
2.8 injection wheels look terrible on the capri S
