"Back to the 80's" The Ford Capri 2.8 injection special.
The Ford Capri 2.8 injection special was developed originally In 1981 as the Ford's faithful 3.0 Litre, V6 was dropped from the line-up, making way for a new, sporty, version called the 2.8 Injection. The Capri 2.8 Injection revived the range and kept the car in production several years longer than Ford had originally planned. In 1984, the 2.8 injection model was the subject of a substantial upgrade and was known as the Capri Injection Special. This development used Recaro half leather seats and included a limited slip differential. Externally, the car could be easily distinguished by the seven spoke RS wheels, its colour coded grille and headlamp surrounds. The Ford Capri was the Ford Mustang of Europe, a mind boggling array of options meant that the Capri could be whatever you wanted it to be, just like the Mustang. The Mk. III was a substantial improvement over its predecessor featuring enhanced aerodynamics that led to better performance, improved economy and included the now trademark quad headlamps. In 1981, Ford's faithful 3.0 Litre V6, Essex engine was dropped from the line-up, making way for a new, sporty, version the 2.8 V6, Cologne unit.
