harlanstoys Posted February 19, 2011 Report Posted February 19, 2011 this is todays new arrival. this 2.8injection manual mk2 saloon.its pretty solid but it does need some tlc but it has only just ran out of mot, it runs very sweet and is just what i needed, i bought this car with intention of stripping it down for the sport estate but ive decided this would be such a shame and i would feel bad.ive heard the rs alloys are rare as they are 16" ones anyway here she is, what do you all think thanks
DAZZA Posted February 19, 2011 Report Posted February 19, 2011 Very nice brings back memory's Oval memories by any chance?
mk3cokebottle Posted February 19, 2011 Report Posted February 19, 2011 Very nice brings back memory's sweet memorys of driving away in someones pride and joy then slowly taking a large hammer,disc cutter and welder to it and start the transformation over a week to finally produce a fine built banger
2litreScapri Posted February 20, 2011 Report Posted February 20, 2011 I like it - up until i bought my Capri & entered the world of OSFs I hadn't seen one of these around for years, being an 80's kid I used to see loads, I thought literally all of them were gone, but there's plenty knocking about still
qwerty Posted February 20, 2011 Report Posted February 20, 2011 A Mk2 Granny is definitely on my Must own list. They're such a 'ard looking car.
MEXY867M Posted February 20, 2011 Report Posted February 20, 2011 nice looking motor mate,one less for the banger track cause they love them
lotusless Posted February 20, 2011 Report Posted February 20, 2011 saw that on the bay glad you rescued it
harlanstoys Posted February 20, 2011 Author Report Posted February 20, 2011 yeah its the one off ebay, asked seller if he had a buy now and we agreed a price so i bought it that way, it come with 4 new door cards, the 4 original suspension springs and a new back door and front wing. all my other cars are for sale as its silly having 3 and i wanna put all my money into one to make it look propper mint, if anyones interested in my volvo 240 estate in back ground drop me a pm, tidy old work horse for some one, i need to sell it to put money into this granny

MEXY867M Posted February 20, 2011 Report Posted February 20, 2011 oh you are so said rog, sell your cappa to the banger boys then oh sorry not strong enough hahaha
harlanstoys Posted February 21, 2011 Author Report Posted February 21, 2011 I was prepared to go and get this one ,rare now in white ,im sure ive some pics of this at silverstone over 10yrs back Good luck thats one of the reasons it stood out to me, ive not seen a white saloon before and thought it was smart, if you have pics any chance you could upload them on here, i would love to see it few years back need to check if this ones got an lsd as matey i go it off seems convinced it does but i doubt it. still not sure if i should leave it lowered or lift it up abit as dunno if its just a bit to low
grifterkid Posted February 22, 2011 Report Posted February 22, 2011 That looks double tasty...!!! It's great to see another Granada saved (from the track ) and especially such a rare one too...
caprinerd Posted February 23, 2011 Report Posted February 23, 2011 oh you are so said rog, sell your cappa to the banger boys then oh sorry not strong enough hahaha i stopped bangers in 2003 mate but back then if it moved it got raced, im now into keeping them alive and not killing them, as for the capri there`s noway it`ll go out that way ever but as a few others on here can say the capri is a very sort after car for the banger boys because of their strength much the same for the mk2 granny and the tina`s but i can take it if your jealous of a superior motor mate lol
