I had 3 Capris in the day. An importerd 2.1 pinto, 3.0 Ghia and a 3.0s. God I loved them. . I'll just have one of the 3.0 back

 

[Devon Z]

I had a 2.8i, my mate had a 3.0S with a Broadspeed built 3.1, we went to many club meets in the day

 

[Fender2004]

I used to unload them brand new off the transporter, back in the day. I did like the 3.0 Ghia model.

 

[Slam]

My first car was a Capri 1600 gtxlr and many years later I had a 2.8 injection that was a great car.

 

[D R Oldfield]

I had a 3 litre ghia that had been hand painted matt black bought it from a local car auction in the early about 1985 I think I paid £150 I swapped it later for a manta A

Always wanted, never owned a Ford Capri. I had pictures of those + Mustangs on my wall. No Lambos or Ferraris then

A realistic man!
Why dream to untouchable things ?

They are supposed to be only dreams. Mind you at 12 they were I suppose.

 

[Zeti]

At least a Capri was miles closer than a Lambo or Ferrari...so is nowadays. Nothing changed!

 

[Nodzed]

I had a 77 mk2 Daytona yellow 2ltr ghia that I barrel rolled into oblivion one night in 1984 when I ran out of talent. Such a shame she was a minter.

 

[t-tony]

Well mate, at least you lived to tell the tale.. Not sure you would've if you had been in a roadster though.

Tony.

 

[Redsheep]

3.0s here.

 

[bp;ptxus]

I had a blue metallic 3.0s SKY 318J that some ****** stole while at a concert in Knebworth Park. I got it back, but only to say goodbye, because it was completely trashed and bashed up. So sad! :-(.

 

[Paul Rice]

Thanks for sharing Tony. Loved my Capris can not remember ford releasing the 2.8 Laser they were 1.6 and 2.0 only
Any of the 10 Capris for me but not that Mercury thing!

Never owned a Ford Crapi as I was an Escort fan but looking back really loved the face lifted Mk1 for the body style and lights etc.

The mk3 was the best looking in the end so a 2.8i would be my choice.

I know of someone with a Brooklands for sale if anyone interested in the contact.
