The Ford Capri was manufactured from 1969 through to 1986. It was designed by American, Philip T. Clark, who was famous for being one of the main designers of the Ford Mustang. Using the mechanical components from the Cortina and intended as the European equivalent of the Mustang for the European markets, the Capri went on to be a highly successful car for Ford and sold nearly 1.9 million units in its lifetime. A wide variety of engines were used in the Capri, throughout its production lifespan, which most notably included the Essex and Cologne V6 engines at the top of the range, whilst the Kent straight-four and Pinto engines were used in lower specification models. Although the Capri was not officially replaced by any Ford model, the second-generation Probe was effectively its replacement after the later car's introduction to the European market in 1992.
This wonderful slice of 80's nostalgia was first registered on 2nd January 1981, finished in white with the iconic decals with contrasting Recaro seats trimmed in Carla fabric with Savannah fabric surrounds and fishnet headrests, which we believe were only available on the S model. Privately owned and cherished, this example has had recent inlet manifold and rocker cover gaskets, the carburettor stripped and overhauled, new HT leads and electronic distributor as part of a recommissioning for this summer. Much of the car is wonderfully original despite having benefitted from a repaint some 10 years ago. Features such as original spare wheel and even tyre can be found inspecting the body, which is very good. The V5 shows just four previous keepers and with the odometer displaying just 63,000 miles, this is a desirable example that should hold values well. For many a dad in the 70s and 80s, the Capri was the ultimate choice - they were sporty, pretty cool and practical (enough) this is a perfect way to relive those days whether you were lucky enough or not.
