This is a highly original and desirable 1972 Ford Capri XL, finished in its rare factory combination of Stardust Grey (W) with Red XL cloth/ vinyl interior (H1). Built at Halewood in September 1972 and retaining its date-correct LC-coded 1600 Crossflow engine, this Capri is an excellent example of an increasingly hard-to-find, unmolested Mk I.
Overall Condition
This Capri remains wonderfully original throughout and shows just 44, 153 miles. Key highlights include:
Body & Exterior
Boot area is exceptionally tidy and completely rust-free
Floors are solid and in good structural condition
Exterior trim is present and in good overall condition
The car does have some visible surface paint bubbles on the rear arches and front wings, but nothing structural
Interior
A true standout feature:
Super original interior, very well preserved
Red cloth/ vinyl seats are vibrant, retaining their factory colour
Matching red door cards are clean and bright
Dashboard, carpets, and fittings remain in excellent original order
Shows exactly the sort of patina expected from a low-mileage Mk I Capri
This is an increasingly rare example with authenticity and originality that collectors appreciate.
Ideal for enthusiasts wanting a solid, original Capri at a lower price.
Includes:
The car as described, running and complete
Solid floors, rust-free boot
Surface paint issues to arches and wings
Original interior in beautiful condition
A straightforward restoration project or light recommission
A great-value entry into classic Capri ownership.
The 1972 Ford Capri XL (1. 6 Kent Crossflow) was factory-fitted with a 4-speed manual gearbox.
Why This Capri Stands Out
Rare and attractive Grey over Red XL specification
Matching VIN and date-correct engine
44, 153 miles
Super original interior and solid floors
Boot area rust-free
Genuine UK-supplied car with increasing collectability
Summary
A wonderful opportunity to acquire an honest, low-mileage, matching-numbers 1972 Ford Capri XL in a sought-after colour combination.
