I learnt how to handle skid control in these capris as they spin out in the wet on bends also the front wheels would get wobble unless you had fairly recent changed track control arms
1st ad had Peter Sutcliffe vibes. He drove her up to the moors in his prized Capri and murdered her with his favorite claw hammer. She's still up there now.
Martin Shaw before he became all 'thespian' darling! Same guy still blocks 'The professionals' from being shown on terrestial TV here in the UK . . . Forgets where he came from.
God I remember Jackie Stewart. He was the MAN back then! My brother had an early 70's Capri and it was a great car but the 80's model was a real PIECE OF SHIT.
80s Ford's were overrated as fuck. I had a MK2 golf and my mate had an Escort. The Escort was made of bake bean can metal and rusted to pieces. Look how many old 80s Ford's you see compared to VWs.
Looking at these adds why didn't ford just cut to the chase and advertise the car as "the ford Capri, the shag masters car". Save all that faffing about.....
Good grief! Jackie Stewart's is amazingly dull might as well have Nigel Mansell advertising the Ford Probe… Martin Shaw and what looks like the actress from 'Just Good Friends', with all that sexual tension, they would never make adverts like that again. Love the Mk1 (the steel hub-caps look wrong on a car like that, the No-Style wheels look much better!) and Mk3 as for the Mk2 the jury is out!
My dad owned a Capri GTR in the seventies; loved that car
Still can’t find the 1972 facelift advert with the two boys arguing over the hump in the bonnet. All of 50 years ago.

The 1st ad they got married, had lots of kids and lived happily ever after.

OK...not quite what I was expecting.

It's amazing Ford ever sold any with these cheesy ads.

I need info for the music in the first ad!
A choice of proven engines. In other words the same old crap that was in the Mk 11 Cortina.

“Cigar?”
“Yes please”

It's Hyde! @5:30.
5:27 is fake.
Like a lady would get into the car of a stranger and put the luggage in the trunk. Lunacy.
