The Capri 280 marked the final chapter in the story of Ford’s legendary coupé, first introduced in 1969.

Originally conceived as a limited run of 500 turbocharged models developed by Turbo Technics and featuring gold alloy wheels, a change in production plans led to a new direction and a new name – the Capri 280.

Powered by Ford’s 2.8-litre fuel-injected V6 engine, the Capri 280 came equipped with a limited-slip differential, full leather Recaro interior and distinctive 15" seven-spoke alloy wheels.

All 1,038 examples were finished exclusively in Brooklands Green, earning the model its enduring nickname, the Brooklands Capri.
