Before the Ford Capri arrived in 1969, GT cars had tended to be expensive, temperamental, impractical and rarefied. Ford decided there was no reason why a four-seater coupe couldnĺt look stunning and go like a rocket (with the right engine) yet be as easy and cheap to run as a Ford Escort. Little wonder that the slogan they used in 1969 to launch it, ĹThe car you always promised yourselfĺ, made an immediate impact. The Capri was a hit from day one, and continued to be a British favourite until 1986, at which time it had been somewhat overshadowed by the emergence of the Hot Hatchback. Over its lifetime, the Capri was available in a vast array of guises over three distinct ĹMarksĺ, but all of them had at their heart affordable fun and a surprising degree of everyday practicality. Nothing has ever quite replaced it, but it lives on in the fond imagination of everyone who loved it. Giles Chapman is an award-winning writer and commentator on the industry, history and culture of cars. He has been editor of Classic & Sports Car, the worldĺs best-selling classic car magazine, and since 1994, heĺs worked freelance across a huge variety of media. Heĺs the author of more than 15 books including My Dad Had One Of Those, Worst Cars, Chapmanĺs Car Compendium and 100 Cars Britain Can Be Proud Of. He lives in Kent.
