1977 Ford Capri 3.0 S, running on 4 and a half cylinders (one misses all the time, other is intermittant)

still rocked though, tail out in the snow

well yeah, but i didnt have that option, it was a choice of my car, a citroen berlingo, the capri or a yellow reliant rialto van (a la trotter)

so the capri it was, as i figured it'd be the most fun in the snow round a quiet industrial estate

Enjoy 17 mpg. Also enjoy tail out in snow, wet, mud, dry, pretty much all the time.

The one to have is the Tickford Turbo

Sadly VERY rare!

2.8 injection special / brooklands were also good.

2.8 cologne engine was alot better than the 3.0 essex in many respects.
