Ah memories.....I had a black 1975 MKII Capri 3.0 litre S ( V6) with Max Power plus pistons, stage 3 racing cams , triple choke carburettors, lightened flywheel and crankshaft, skimmed and polished heads, lowered suspension and twin racing exhaust. It also had three kenlow racing fans and the fuel pump was the size of a vacuum flask.It had no fancy Ecu, just an electronic distributer, At the front of the car were six Cibe spotlights in an inverted V shape It managed approx 10 miles to the gallon. It only had standard brakes (drums on the rear and discs on the front), so suffered terrible brake fade. It was very tail happy which was great in the snow/rain/ice as it would drift around corners and traffic Islands. Last time I saw the car (many, many years ago) was in Wolverhampton being driven by a West Indian male. The car had had a brown vinyl roof applied !!! and oversize rear wheels similar to the old F1 rears from the 1970's, again, very odd !!!!. As a 21yr old , I thought it was the bees knees.
Happy days :-)
