Ford Capri (Crowood Autoclassics)

This book tells the story of a successful, ground-breaking, range of sporting Ford cars. From 1969, when the 'Car You Always Promised Yourself' was introduced, and for nearly twenty years after that, the Capri range set new engineering, styling and marketing standards. In that period, nearly two million Capris were sold, and Ford's rivals struggled to match it. Graham Robson's affectionate narrative covers the complete history of these versatile machines - not only in the showrooms and in the marketplace, but on the race tracks where so many successes were gained.
