We saw them growing up, made extra famous by CI5 (The Professionals), flying around the streets of London. The Ford Capri has always been the tail-happy coupé, billed by Ford as “the car you always promised yourself”.
Now is the time to fulfil that promise and sit yourself behind the wheel of one of the more powerful Capri’s produced, the 2.8 injection Special. Of course, being the 2.8i Special, it comes with a touch more luxury. Half leather Recaro seats with matching door cards are an improvement over the fabric models. In addition, the wheels got an upgrade to a more modern looking seven-spoke alloy.
This particular car had a lot of mechanical work carried out before going into storage for the past ten years. It has recently had some light recommissioning and is running in good order, passing a recent MOT with no advisories. So what are you waiting for? Don’t you have a promise to keep?

The stylish fastback coupé from Ford was a great success spanning over 17 years. This 2.8 injection Special was given a new lease of life over ten years ago when the owner at the time carried out some restoration work. Since then, it has been in storage and unused. However, a recent service and recommissioning followed by an MOT has seen the car get the all clear, and it's now ready to be enjoyed once again.
