Heres your chance,I have done a lot of miles in one of these old schitt boxes...that now bring good dough.

I'd have had that if it wasn't for the steering wheel being on the wrong side.

get an aussie one?

 

[Jagare]

My old boss had one of the first 2.8i Capri's with the pepper pot alli wheels. He stayed in a hotel in Liverpool and in the morning he came out to find it sitting on bricks.
His next car was a Tickford Capri that was fettled by Aston Martin.

Everyone seems to be thinking about the second Ford Capri.

This is the first one!

i cant quite decipher that

 

[Heym SR20]

There was always the Marina Coupe with a B series engine and free rust. Jolly Interesting.

The V6 Capri was fun, but lets face it most had a small 4 cylinder engines.

 

[andy R204]

Looks like a jazzed up Focus to me. In my opinion most cars all look the same these days. I would rather purchase a good old Ford Capri than this modern version. Mind a really good one in top nick wont be cheap.
I am a bit of a petrol head and quite often watch a programme on TV called "Bangers and cash". Some of the prices for old Ford Sierras, Cosworth's, Escorts are through the roof......................£50,000 or more!!

I don't think they ever make a profitbut it's great to see the classic 70's to early 90's motors getting restored & back on the road.

 

[Rusty Gate]

What a sack of shite

 

[patrickt]

Looks more like a Sierra.

Or a VW Beetle !!!!

 

[patrickt]

Its probably the same floor pan every one else is using now.

It certainly looks like a Pan of S***

Love it . One on Bangers and cash went for reasonable money a few weeks back. At least cars had character back then.

Ahh yes I remember these quite well.

Buy one on Saturday, and by the following Saturday it would be a pile of rust.

 

[treetop]

Sorry chaps, any dreams of reliving your youth with fast women in a Ford Capri is over. This is the new Capri...

WTF is that..

New Ford Capri to return as an electric coupe-SUV | Carbuyer

Ford has hinted the Capri nameplate will return on an electric coupe-SUV – here’s what it could look like

Looks like an Audi TT / Beatle - horrible !!!

 

[mealiejimmy]

Unlike it's earlier incarnation, nobody is pulling any birds in that new Capri

When I was a agriculture student I was grain carting on a farm just north of Oxford. It was about 11pm, we had a period of rain and now it was a dry spell we would keep going as long as the grain was dry. It was a hot dry night so it was going to be long one. I had just offloaded the combine - he would get down and down and back Big Field before needing emptying. So i parked just inside the entrance of the field, turned the engine off, lights off and but seat back to have a nap.

A little while later a car pulls into the field, lots of giggling and closing of car doors.

A few moments later the flashing light on the combine went on, started up the engine, all the flood lights went on and illuminated a ford capri and couple doing what couples do ……….. I drove off to empty the combine and will leave the rest to your imagination

 

[Bavarianbrit]

That works in a Hillman Imp too.

 

[Yorkie]

I went down a different route to the Capri.

My first decent car was a 1979, Opel Manta SR Berlinetta coupe. Much better looking-at least to my eye-than a Capri. Only had a 2.0 litre engine though and not a nice V6 that the ford had. It was rare in as much as it had a factory fit auto gearbox.

I loved that car. Got written off by a Marshals wagon, i stopped at the roundabout and he didn't. Boot ended up in the back seat.

 

[cjm1066]

While it was popular it was only a Cortina dressed as a sports car.

The new one might revive memories and be better for courting couples with more space inside.

 

[Dunwaters]

Love it . One on Bangers and cash went for reasonable money a few weeks back. At least cars had character back then.

True, but it wasn’t all good character.
The Capri would swop ends for no reason at all and came complete with a lifetime guarantee of unreliability and pre installed rust.
At least the parts were cheap and you didn’t need a huge toolkit.

 

[Pelyma]

My parents had a 1600GT, a 2.0S and then a 2.8i, we were definitely a Capri family. Sad thing is the Mini Cooper F56 which was my son and daughters first car was just about as quick as the 2.8i with a 1.5l three cylinder engine!
