That's a shame, looked like a decent amount of car for the money, but at least good news on your money back. From the negative reviews I wouldn't have counted on it.

Good luck with the search. Shame about the car, but at least you got your money back.

Would love a Capri. Thing is though back then it probably had pretty narrow wheels compared with what cars have these day and that makes a big differences.

Anyway snowee yesterday and was frozen solid around the estate this morning but didn't have any issues at all so provided common sense is used a RWD car isnt really an issue.
