Condition 

7

The car appears to be in overall solid condition with slight wear. The listing mentions it 'sounds great and runs very well', indicating good mechanical condition. Cosmetically, it retains its original two-tone colors and 'pepper pot' alloy wheels, and while the interior was updated, this was a common modification. The presence of a detailed history and recent maintenance totaling nearly £2,000 suggests it has been well-maintained, but given its age, some wear is expected. Therefore, a 'Very Good' rating is appropriate.

Here we have a great opportunity to get yourself one of the earliest Ford Capri 2.8 Injections made.

This example was first registered on 13/1/1982, which means it was probably produced in late 1981 making it an early car.

It is finished in the two-tone colours that are associated with the launch 2.8 Injections with the chequered trim, ‘pepper pot’ alloy wheels - of which there are five, often the spare gets misplaced but not in this case - and the all-important 4-speed gearbox (a lot of them were replaced with 5-speed).

A new sport-oriented version of the Capri debuted at the Geneva Motor Show, called the 2.8 Injection.

The new model was the first regular model since the RS2600 to use fuel injection.

Power rose to a claimed 160 PS (even though tests showed the real figure was closer to 150 PS), giving a top speed of 130 mph, but it still had a standard four-speed gearbox.

The Capri 2.8 Injection breathed new life into the range and kept the car in production 2 to 3 years longer ...
