Old school for me the new capri duzz not come close to old capri ...you can take body of just like every other var If did not have capri badge on it wood not know watt car it is just another electric car with name 😊

Great video,I have a 2009 BMW X5 E70 35d Msport in Titansilver metallic 286bhp,I love it When I got it 4 years ago I’d never seen such big tyres Bridgestone dueller sport hp all round,275 front,315 on the back,It’s true what you say They are fun to drive,And surprising for a car as big as a house,Great video.That exhaust on yours sounds great.

Why does the Puma have a reverse light on?

Your Capri Injection Special is very nice. I used to have a Vauxhall Carlton 1989 1.8i with almost the same colour. 😊😊😊

The salesman was good giving precise information at the right times not overloading the drivers well. done to him

Prices of all new cars is crazy a new puma is £25k this capri was 50k for that you can buy a porsche taycan with warranty that originally was £150k electric cars heavily deprecate this capri will be worth £20 to 25k in 3 years and 30. 000 miles

Sorry would not have any Electric car, it’s false economy they are not good for the environment at all.And at £53k it’s over priced by at least £30k

Hi ive just picked up a purple blue X pack v6 cougar The car was so filthy and abused at 82k.The car has been not well looked after. I'm currently in the process of detailing the car and cleaning and softening the leather so it doesn't look too unacceptable...Is there any way of fitting a 6 soeed gearbox..? .I love this car but the motorway cruising speed is let down by the 5 speed gearbox...At 70 mph the engine is spinning at over 3500 revs...even with larger alloys fitted...The engine is so incredibly smooth and torquey but it is so high revving on the A roads...If this car was produced with the 3 litre V6 and six speed gearbox also with 4 wheel drive it would have been incredible...It desperately needs a six speed gearbox...Can I send you pictures..? I only paid 1k for it...

I love those cars ❤I owned an F plate 20i ghia Auto (pinto) in gold in the late 90’s then an H plate 20i ghia manual grey, had both (cheap) cars for 3 years caned them around, totally reliable, fast and good on fuel. Brilliant motors. Miss them dearly 😊great video. I notice the rear wheel arches have been done , same with both of mine 😊😊😊

Lovely vid'. As a boring person who loves my cars, seeing the old models by the new ones just reinforced why I wouldn't want one of the new ones. They all look huge and heavy. My apathy plays a part but pretty well every new car looks the same. If environment was a real drive the cars would have size and weight limits. All parts would have to be straightforward to replace. Eg simple lamps, not huge and expensive clusters. Less sensors which complicate bumper replacement etc. Seats and boots not needing motors to move them. They're all using electricity which comes from somewhere. But, that's my grumpy take on it. Each to their own after all.

Love my cars but, I'm useless on the mechanics of the machines. Might the miss fire have been a small amount of slightly stale petrol, cured by topping up well with fresh?

Whilst there is understandable apathy towards electric cars - and the naming of the 'New' Capri is highly contentious, for Ford to survive in Europe as a car manufacturer and retailer we must try and understand and support their endeavours in trying to satisfy the challenges of the currently motoring landscape. My great grandfather was one of the very first Ford dealers in the Uk - he dealt directly with Henry Ford himself - the very thought now of actually losing Ford from Europe in the coming years was once unthinkable, it could now very seriously become a reality. Electric cars love them or loathe them, are now here and we must try to accept that - and judge the Capri on the merits against its electric car competitors. I for one dont want Ford to leave Europes shores. I think Vospers asking you to put your cars in their showroom was an incredibly savvy idea - and lovely to see 👍👍

What a car for a bag a sand fantastic I'm envious 💚 you were very brave driving it on motorway, i had that issue in my merc 190e i literally had seconds to pull over before the car cut out alternator failure.

Superb video as always. I know I keep asking but.....Prom video with the Sapphire? 😊

I would have thought the last thing a Ford dealer would want to do is remind people how brilliant some petrol cars were and how they are still good to drive after 40 years! (Are they mad?) 🤔

Imagine in 25 years time the early Tesla S dual motor being a very sought-after modern classic!

After spending so much time and money on these gorgeous old cars, surely you could afford a few quid building a decent barn in place of that old dilapidated shed?

Great video a pleasure to watch,

Never had a person say ford sierra rs cosworth 1,000 time in 1 video. We can tell what it is. Getting lame my man

The new Capri is basically a VW in disguise!!!!

Nightmare Car - Lost £27,000.00 in 18months when they when bust Top Spec 8,000 mls sold for £6,750.00 spent more time in garage with melted pipes

With calling an electric monstrosity a Capri, Ford should be sued for fraud. Capris will always be the British working mans sports coupe

Sorry I had to fast forward the horrible EV bit, not sure what is worse it being an EV or the capri badge on it Just because they stick a capri badge on doesn’t make it one 🤬🤬

No way should that ugly vile woke overgrown scalextric conyraption be called a CAPRI. Crap !!

2 litre XJ…..I know it was talked about but I have never seen one??! Great video x

Simons Puma seems to have the incorrect wattage stop and tail bulb in the nearside, or the offside... Also, why wouldn't you both check all the lights (essentials) before setting off to have your car featured in the showroom??? Especially with the Capri.🫤🙈🙈🙈 That showroom was obviously desperate.

Just to add, please, please loose the crappy music 😖 I have to keep muting it, as it makes me feel sick.🤢 There really is no need for this teeny boppy crap 😫

The 406 coupe is severely underrated in the Uk - its lovely that your featuring an example on your channel - i hope after your tenure of ownership it finds a loving home. They really are great cars especially the 3.0 V6.

I would have gone home in anything 2.8 or 2.5 anyday... gregs sausauge roll there for the ride home...... get them rear lights fixed on the 2.8... lol N x

Great video as ever, love your collection and I’m looking forward to seeing more of the cosworth and also the Rover 820 hopefully. My partner recently got an electric Mercedes which surprisingly I’ve really loved driving and getting to know, they have many pro’s if you give them a chance but for me it’s not the electric drivetrain that’s the problem it’s the electronic Nannie’s that new cars are full of that constantly interfere with your pleasure as you drive, I find them intrusive and incredibly annoying!

I have owned my capri 2.8 injection for over 33 years now and she has been sat in the carport for over 4 and a half years. Many new parts later plus I lost 2 years due to being a key worker during covid and then having to work 2 jobs. Then I lost both my parents so didn't feel like being anywhere near the car for some time. A few weeks ago I finally got to have a drive. Still purrs as good as the day I bought her.

Simon's Puma's o/s light cluster has a problem, if nobody's told him yet!

It’s easy to guess which three cars were instantly the best in that showroom as soon as they drove in.

Can’t say that I’m an EV fan, at the moment but we are at the genesis in this new breed so who knows what is to come, Simon’s comment was the most pertinent about what is to come in 10 years, I know and kinda understand the haters but they need to calm down and stay in their own lane, I’m sure with each generation of car development in the last hundred years there has been the same type of fear of the future from luddites but for now I’ll stick personally with internal combustion

My 2.8 really doesn't like anything other than Shell V Power, it runs so much better on it. Try that first before ripping it to bits.

Andy the Capri is missing quite bad buddy???

I know where theres one same color needs a rebuild its up for 8K no rust

new capri what bull,they want them back to see what poeple wanted to buy .not that milkfloat bollocks

The old school cars are way better than the blocks of metal rubbish that are EVs.. The road surfaces are going to get ruined because of the weight ! Tyre wear is terrible ! and the public humiliation of being seen in one ,,, well 🙄😂.. What's in a service? Oil change ??? Ha, . I'd rather walk or become a vegetarian than buy one of those pieces of useless rubbish... I'll stick to my 2006 Fiesta thank you ... 😁👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿😉. Great video

At least the new Puma resembled the original but the new Capri just doesn't look anything like the originals not to me anyway. I am not surprised that Capri fans don't like the new one tbh.

Did you not rag it - it was a bargain

I had a red 2.8 litre one in 1991 at age 22.G reg. Lovely motor but could only afford a years insurance. I was lucky in that year not wrapping it around a tree.

id rather have 3x 2.8 ford granada ghia x and a 1999 BMW E38 740I. Than an a Plastic or tiny EV .

Sorry for the French, this is a piece of shit VW with Ford badges, a disgrace by Ford to their loyal customers. That moron Jim Farley, responsible for Ford losing £100,000 on each EV they sell, needs to be shown the door yesterday,he’s rapidly sinking an 125 year old company I’m an ex-Ford of Europe employee, Ford is almost a shadow of its former self.

My friend is selling his white 1974 3000s capri for £22000,in manchester .

Hi nice video i bet people going into vospers show room looked at your capri rather than the boxy new ev,i think you have a earth problem on the rear as when you braked and reversed into the showroom the lights were acting a bit strange,one big question when are we going to see my favorite car the lovely saffire cosworth regards richard.

Everyone that slags EV’s off haven’t driven a proper one let alone owned one They 100 percent have a place in the future. Doesn’t mean we can’t still enjoy our classics :)

Makes me cringe how desperate Vospers are trying to flog the EV stock. Having to use your great channel to promote a milk float to your followers who are petrol heads. Could buy a couple of mint 2.8 capris for the price of that rubbish. I wonder where these Evs will end up. Other than motability of course. I feel sorry for the sales guys
