The capri280 Register was set up in August 1994 in  Manchester Capri Club to record and try to trace how many of the 1038  that were built in the  last two weeks of    December 1986  still remain today.

The  Totals for the  capri280 Register are recorded  by Year  Letter   listed  below

"D" 124

"E" 250

"F" 6

"Personal" 36

"Ringers / Write -Offs / No Know Registration " 6

 

Totals at      01/12/2010          =          424 

 

It appears that numbers are becoming  less , with a probable figure , now at the end of 2004, to be nearer the 400 mark , with  only an additional  22  added to the Register in that year. 

In 2005 one has now  been declared  right - off  and another has been recorded as only existing as a Tag Plate, as featured on Ebay.

In 2006, 23 more 280s were added to the Register, with several showing change of ownership.

In 2009/2010, changes are slow,  few numbers are being added,with most changes being changes in ownership and in 2010, another gone Stolen and not Recovered.
