Nice. I love Capri's and that looks like its in pretty good nick.

Lose the Cabaret badge off the back. Buff up the vinyl and dress those feckin tyres!

Got the original radio / cassette by the looks of it. Does it still work?

Oh, and Happy Birthday ! :L

Dont do minilights! See if you can source a set of the Ford 7 spoke alloys that the 2.8 Injection Specials or the Brookys had. They would suit it a treat.

Then dress the tyres !!!!! :L
