SUMMARY
This TV-featured 1970 Ford Capri 3000GT is the property of and directly on offer from Jamie Oliver MBE.
DESCRIPTION
- One of the most collectible examples of the Mk1 Capri, a 3000 GT in Ermine White with a black vinyl interior
- Fitted with the well proven 3-litre Essex V6 producing 130bhp and offering 8.5 seconds to 60mph and 121mph, impressive for 1970
- This is a two-owner car from new, with Jamie taking possession in June 2014
- During his ownership, the car was restored in line with its original specification at a cost of around £20,000
- Described by Jamie as his 'go-to car', the Capri is well known and has made a few guest appearances, one of which was on Jamie and Jimmy's Friday Night Feast
- Within the history file are some old MOTs, an original V5 showing the first keeper and various details of the car on some social media platforms
- We believe that there are only 31 of these 3000GTs currently on the road and consequently they're very collectible. This is the perfect opportunity to get behind the wheel of one with the added bonus of celebrity provenance
Below is a link to the Capri as used in the Friday Night Feast
