UK advert for the Ford Capri 2.8 Injection, circa 1981, when Ford still made decent cars and advertisements. The model really did go like lightning:



Shep sez: The Capri 2.8 Injection is the sort of car that I lusted after when I was a pup. Not sure that I'd like to drive one in anger in the conditions depicted in the advert, though, as they have a reputation for poor handling, especially on wet roads...

My mum had a gold coloured Ford Capri when I was in my teens - she kept it just long enough that I got to drive it when I turned 17. Wonderful fun it was.

I loved my Puma, I was so sad that they stopped making them, I really wanted a new(er) one :-(
