What is your favourite car of all time?


Capri Mk1 3000E 1971-1972


Ford launched the 3000 E (E for Executive) at the 1970 Geneva Motor Show. The £1,541 flagship carried all the usual XLR options, plus the then fashionable vinyl roof, the first cloth seat inserts to be offered in British Capris and now a radio as standard. In October 1971 the previously lazy V6 was worked over to give an extra 9lb/ft of torque and 10bhp. It made the 3000E and 3000GT, according to Ford's PR men, "the fastest production line cars ever to be marketed by Ford in Britain".
