Description
This lot will be auctioned via Classic Car Auctions, The Autumn Sale 2023 on Saturday the 30th of September, Warwickshire Event Centre, CV31 1XN.
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
