Mk2 Ford Capri Advert Featuring Jackie Stewart

[caxtonman]

Why oh why did I sell my Mk2 Capri last year??? Watching this advert doesn't help!!

[Electroelectro]

YEAH JACKIE, FOLD THE SEAT! OTHERWISE, YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO FIT A RACKET IN THERE!

@thenicedudejay That's not his wife, it's his mother.

Capris are cool. My mother had a 3 ltr Ghia Diamond White with Black Roof - bought in 1974 and this was the coolest Mum's car at Prep School! Ah the 70's!

I had a Mk2 1.6GL, venetian red, black vinyl roof, tan interior for 21 years (totally concours) until I sold it last year - I deeply regret it and watching this advert only reminds me what a bad decision that was. Sad git I am!

why is it left-hand drive?

@badbob1983

Because Jackie had to move to Switzerland to avoid paying something 90% income tax to the UK Government that the time as he was obviously earning a very high salary due to racing driving & endorsments in commercials such as this one.

I have had my Mk2 Capri for 20 years now....venetian red, black vinyl roof and a tan interior...a perfect combination and still in near perfect condition. From an era when you could tell what a car was from a distance without looking at the badges!
