Description[]
The Ford Capri is a fastback coupe built by Ford of Europe. Designed by Philip Clark, the Capri was produced from 1968 to 1986. The Mark III Capri, introduced in 1978, retained few styling cues from the previous generation as well as improved aerodynamics.
The Capri was also used in motorsport, with German race team Zakspeed building silhouette race car versions of the Mark III Capri; powered by a 1.4L turbocharged Cosworth BDA inline-4 making 523 BHP, with up to 592 BHP available on tap using boost, the racing Capris featured little in common with that of their road-going counterparts. The Zakspeed Turbo Capris were designed and engineered by Thomas Ammerschläger. The cars were successful, with Klaus Ludwig winning the 1981 Deutsche Rennsport Meisterschaft title.
In development this casting was known as the Ford Capri GP5.
