The Capri modelled was registered in Northwest London on August 1st, 1971, the first day of the K registration suffix. It was ordered by a lady who specified the unusual colour scheme of Glacier Blue with Marquis upholstery, which Ford only offered for one year.

She also ordered the GT and XLR option packs, the second of which included the matt black bonnet, spot lamps and Rostyle wheels. The lady obviously loved the car and its characterful 1599cc Kent Crossflow, a power unit shared with contemporary Escort Mexicos, as she kept it until 1993. After the first owner sold it, the car was resprayed Ford Pacific blue, then traded into London-based Curry Motors, in 1998.

The current and fourth owner, Berkshire-based Capri enthusiast Nick Campbell, spotted it advertised in High Wycombe as a restoration project in 2004. He paid £400 for it that day because his first Capri had been in this specification. Family commitments delayed the restoration until 2009, but by then he’d acquired the parts and the space needed.

He stripped the bodyshell and was pleased to find it needed comparatively little metalwork. Over the next six years, he totally restored the car to its original colour and specification, making some subtle improvements to the brakes and suspension as he was rebuilding it, and had it painted to a high standard.

It was returned to the road in 2016 and featured in Retro Ford magazine in 2017.

We're recreated this restored car in 1:43 die-cast metal, making it an elite addition to your Vanguards collection.
