Classic Ford

SILVER GHOST

Every model of Capri made by Ford has been on someone’s wishlist, but the Mk3 3.0S has for many been the one to have.

A certain TV series from four decades ago would probably explain the 3.0S’s ongoing popularity. Even today The Professionals is a much-talked-about programme unlike other ITV detective shows of the era such as Dempsey & Makepeace. And who can remember the cars that appeared in that? The Professionals was the perfect advert for the Capri if ever there was one and it still plays its part today.

Jarrod Swain has been a huge Capri fan since he was in his teens, he made it a priority to be owning and driving one when he was 17.
