The Ford Capri must rank as one of the cleverest car packages of all time. Within its undeniably sporty shape can be found a thoroughly practical, sensible, small capacity family car or a rip-roaring roadburner with looks to match the image — it all depends on the specification you choose. Thought by many to be the European Ford Mustang, Capri has always had this Jekyll & Hyde character. In fact, during the original prod-uct promotion planning, Ford could not decide whether Capri was a sporting car for the family motorist or a family car for the sporting motorist! This dilemma was never really resolved as Britain and Germany both took opposite views and the Americans simply thought the car was 'sexy' Jeremy Walton's exceptionally thorough re-searches have brought to light the complete and fascinating story behind this exceptional vehicle. Not only is the evolution of the road cars completely' chronicled, but also the Capri's ex-traordinary success in many forms of motorsport. The Capri has been around for so long it seems like part of the furniture but, before you have read very much of this book, you will see the Capri in a new light as the text unfolds and your respect grows.
