Pair of rust free MK1 Capris.  £17,500 for both. Facebook South Africa.  Seller also selling MK1 Cortina.  But the P100 looks best of all.

The car also has a private number plate which will come with the car.

Is it in the boot? Because the one on the car doesn't look like it's worth the acrylic.

The reg number is TE57LEA which kind of looks like TESLA.

No, it does not. It is however, an excellent private plate for an OFSTED inspector.

Can’t help feeling that without the banded, chromed VX 4/90 Rostyles , it’d be just another FE.  

Front grille is different too, same as the VX4/90. 

And of course, not forgetting the auxiliary instruments, the wood and that 3.3 litre lump.

EFA.

Ventoras don’t require fat tyres for more grip. Squealing the skinny tyres is the only fun to be had in an FE, unless your passenger is feeling frisky.  (Which is pretty unlikely to be brought on by the Vauxhall.)

Oh, I’m aware of what makes it a Ventora, just not what makes it worth£16k , to be honest that 3.3 boat anchor with an auto box , just reduces the mpg. I’m sure the performance figures for 2.3 Victors, VX4 /90s and Ventoras are all pretty much the same.  Just checked and yes all 3 posted 12-12.6 second 0-60 and only the Ventoar could just break 100 mph.

As such a value of about £7/8000 for a nice one is about it, maybe £10k if that ludicrous low mileage can be proved.

The sweet spot would be a late VX2300 GLS or maybe a 2.3 Victor fitted with brushed nylon Ventora seats and a cassette player- where could one possibly find such a beast? That would surely be worth every penny of £16,000.

£16k does seem a bit steep.

Same performance figures as a Mk. IV Zodiac then - wonder how the Mk. 1 Granny compared? At least the Ventora didn't have that fragile piece of shite known as the "Essex V6" powering it...

To be honest, I think Vauxhall lost their way a bit with the styling on the FE - my godfather had an 1800ES FE in yellow with a black vinyl roof and all the options, It also bore the plate NEW 14M, which would occasionally get an 'E' added in the dirt to make NEW 14ME.

I much preferred his white 2000SL FD - PEW 58K.

And no, I can't remember what I had for breakfast... 🤔
