It’s not even a Ford it’s VW underneath. Can’t wait to see it with an ST badge on it, no one said ever.

I would rather have a 1969 16 valve twincam bda capri !!

No nothing.

No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

No tackiness.

Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

Innit?

Looks like the gopping electric Mustang..🤮🤮

 

Shame really, they could’ve revived this to be another iconic looking motor…but no. Am I right in thinking there was rumours a few years ago about the capri maybe coming back, but in a more sleek, coupe style?

NB 375, Goodrich hoses, RDU cooler (fitted for the hell of it), gas bonnet struts, Mountune RR, hard pipe kit, V1 cat-back….and RS seat covers!

That 2014/15 version looks a bit iPace.   The current camo shots look awful.   Another hecking SUV.     I think Ford are trying to compete with the Koreans and Chinese and loosing.

Are OEM’s making what people really want or just what they want to make?

@9designs, I really don’t know what Ford are thinking They certainly are getting ugly. There’s no need to make them that way.

Has any major manufacturers made a good looking electric vehicle yet, Lotus we’re close.

All the design studios must be following the goping look style.

Need pictures of E types,  Miura, Impreza etc on the wall

May the Ford be with you

 

 

[red-leader]

Not for me.  I remember my red 2.8 and Brooklands green 280 just great cars,  looked good and went well. 👍

Along with that Explorer, Ford are offering another dog ugly lump.  What with their revival of totally inappropriate names they have the bare faced cheek to say these are the vehicles the public want!  If this is all you have to offer, the buying public have no choice!
