Ford Capri lovers sit up and listen!  Classic Car Auctions (CCA) are offering a fantastic selection of fast Fords at its upcoming September Sale taking place at the Warwickshire Exhibition Centre on 23rd September.

Topping the selection of fast Fords is a 1988 Ford Capri 280 Brooklands Turbo Technics in fabulous condition following a fastidious 15 month restoration. Number 666 out of 1,038 manufactured, the classic Capri has covered just 38,000 miles, making it one of the best examples in existence, with an estimate of £30,000 to £35,000.

A number of other desirable Capris are also available, including a 1970 Mk I Ford Capri 3000 GT XLR to be offered at an estimate of £17,000 to £20,000 as one of just 27 examples thought to be left, a fabulous, unrestored 1987 Ford Capri 280 Brooklands reading 40,949 miles and with just two former keepers to be offered at £23,000 to £26,000, and a rare 1987 Ford Capri 2.8i Mk III Special coming from a 29 year ownership and reading just 25,000 miles, estimated at £12,000 to £15,000.

One of the defining sports saloons of the nineties, an unrestored and absolutely unmolested 1992 Ford Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth 4×4 reading just 28,730 miles from new will be offered with a sale estimate of £25,000 to £30,000.

For those who prefer American muscle, a low ownership and low mileage 1968 Ford Mustang Fastback which has been sympathetically restored, yet remains largely original, is expected to achieve £25,000 to £35,000 at auction.

A striking 1965 Ford Thunderbird in white with a black interior offers acres of car, and chrome, for its estimate of £8,000 to £10,000.

and the rest… 

Amongst the 172 lots we also spotted a rare 1959 Ford100E Prefect, a former Concours d’Elegance award winning 1964 Triumph Spitfire 4 Mk I and a 1970 MG Midget racer.

For buyers looking for race car donors there is a 1991 Volkswagen Golf GTI, offered at ‘No Reserve’.

 

Rare and collectible cars include a 1988 Porsche 944 Turbo S ‘Silver Rose’, one of just 77 made, a 1982 Ferrari Mondial Quattrovalve, one of just 152 produced in right-hand drive, and a 1971 NSU Prinz 4L, one of just 12 surviving examples.

At the higher end of the market, classic Porsches are much in evidence including a fine example of the legendary eighties super car, a UK right-hand drive 930-type 911 Turbo in Guards Red estimated at £60,000 – £70,000. From the sixties there is a 1969 Porsche 911E Targa in great condition after a rigorous recommissioning. The 911E has been in the vendor’s hands for two years, but previously resided with the same family for 40 years in Nevada.

With large crowds expected, the auction house will hold a dedicated viewing afternoon on Friday 22nd September from 12 noon to 6pm. Doors open on Saturday 23rd September at 9am with viewing available until 11am when the auction starts.

Purchase of a £5 auction catalogue admits two people into the auction, with free entry for children under the age of 12 years.

The Warwickshire Exhibition Centre offers free parking, disabled access and an on-site cafeteria serving hot and cold food and drinks.
