JayEmm reviews yet another car I’ve owned. I think I count 6 so far. I had a new Cappuccino in ‘95. One of the official imports. Great fun in the real world. You could drive flat out more or less everywhere. Not a car if you’re the sort that worries about his macho image. But if you enjoy driving, it’s a great little car. Only kept it for a year, but still have very fond memories of it.

@@TurnMaster I had my Cappo from 1997 until 2001, when I still lived in the UK, and my car was one of the official UK imports. Suzuki GB was not very supportive; for them it was just a burden. Already in 2000 they quoted about £4000 (!) for a set of new seals for the roof panels! That was too much for me. I am glad to hear that you can manage to keep your car alive.

After couple Exige v6 and 1.8 sports performance with roof scoop. I’ve had 3/4 Cappu since c.99 and they almost equal fun to Lotus in pint sized proportions. And last one was rotting to core. Seriously a dog to look at. Euro look rat look would not look as rough . And I loved it. Used to be 3999 and now more 11999 with bitty ones 5999-7999. Maybe 4K find an ok so so not too bad bargain one. Has the fun gone at 12k cannot be sure . My last bought and sold under £1800 in last 24 months. It was just so entertaining. Nice to drive. Tight even. Plain fun. But the Worst condition car within a 25 mile radius.

Looked like a mini Audi TT but had a folding hard top like a SLK. Fantastic economy, bomb proof engine (Toyota mostly), the most feelsome hydraulic steering and FUN,FUN,FUN! Had the chassis rigidity of a jelly! Got an Ariel Atom next which I still own. Simon Saunders (founder of Ariel) said I was the 3rd Copen owner to then buy an Atom.

So glad you reviewed the Cappuccino before they all rusted out in the UK. I've had mine since 2010 and it's an incredible car with some modification, surprising many more expensive cars on a mountain pass or B-road. I have fitted a G13b engine from the Suzuki Swift GTI and have plans to build it up to over 200kw with a Garret turbo. It would be a lot of fun. But right now I'm torn whether to sell up instead and step into a newer 986/7 Boxster S or Cayman for the same money I'd spend on the Cappuccino modifications.

The second coolest Kei after Autozam AZ-1. £7000 is reasonably cheap for a minter. Early cars have model designation EA11R, later ones EA21R (from late 1994). EA21 had chain driven cams, aluminium wishbone suspension, VVT with 108Nm (versus 90 for EA11R) and the option of a 3 speed auto - although this now is worth half the price of a manual.

To correct, there’s no such a rule that limit the output of k cars to 64bhp, but this is a gentleman’s agreement like the 280hp rule (the legal output limit for Kei was scrapped in 1960). However like the 280 rule the manufacturer merely put 64bhp on sticker, and some are more than that. In addition there’re k cars more than 64bhp, such as the Caterham 7 160/170 which has 84hp. Caterham doesn’t need to care as it’s not a member of Kei manufacturer’s association and doesn’t sell in volume.

2:52 again there was no official power restriction since the 1960 hence this is certainly not true. The reason there's this self-governing rule on sticker horsepower at the time (and ever since - by Japanese Kei manufacturers) is because of Suzuki Alto Works at the time, which has a turbo engine and unlocked the possibility of potentially dangerous level of output from a 660cc engine considered by the Japanese ministry of transport, whom at the time feared a Kei arms race coming and hence called in manufactures of Kei cars. Indeed many have also proved the Cappucino has higher than sticker output at the crank.
