1986 Ford Capri 2.0 Laser

Sold for £11,250

(including buyers premium)


Lot details

Registration No: C252 DYY
Chassis No: WF0CXXGAECGT38648
MOT: May 2023

  • Pleasingly original example which retains its supplying dealer issued rear window sticker, tax disc holder and number plates
  • Highly credible recorded mileage of 79,900 and just four former keepers
  • Finished in Lacquer Red with Truro Cloth upholstery

Introduced in November 1984, the special edition Capri Laser featured a six-gauge dashboard, tinted glass, tailgate-mounted spoiler, leather-trimmed gear lever / steering wheel, body coloured grille / door mirrors, RS alloys, unique graphics, Black-painted bumpers and Truro cloth upholstery. Available with a choice of 1.6-litre or 2-litre SOHC four-cylinder engines allied to either five-speed manual or automatic transmission, the larger capacity variant was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 9.6 seconds and 113mph. The very last Capri Laser rolled off the production line at Ford's Cologne, West Germany plant during November 1986.

Finished in its original colour of Lacquer Red with Truro Grey cloth upholstery, ‘C252 DYY’ is believed but not warranted to have covered only 80,000 miles from new (an average of 2,222 per annum). Showing just four former keepers on HPi, the Ford pleasingly retains the tax disc holder, rear window sticker and number plates fitted by its supplying dealer, Gordons of Dulwich. The rear parcel shelf has not been cut into and the boot floor, spare wheel well, MacPherson strut towers and A- and B-Posts all look far sounder than many Capris we have encountered. Dry stored for the last few years, this well preserved 2-litre Laser possesses a fresh, 'no advisories' MOT certificate valid until May 31st 2023.
