Model history

Introduced in 1969, the first-generation Ford Capri (Mk1) brought the concept of the affordable sports coupé to Europe, combining sporty design with a wide range of engines from four-cylinder to V6. With its long hood, short rear, and striking fastback silhouette, it captured the spirit of the 1970s and quickly became a sales success. Particularly powerful variants such as the RS 2600 also underscored the model's sporty credentials and cemented the Capri's reputation as the European counterpart to the Mustang.
