Discover the timeless beauty of the Ford Capri at HooG Selections
Welcome to HooG Selections, where dreams of classic cars come true! On June 4, 2020, the Ford Capri made its way to the Netherlands and is now shining in our showroom. This vintage beauty, from its 3rd owner since registration in the Netherlands, exudes history and character. Let's embark on a journey through time and discover why this Capri offers an unforgettable experience.
History and story
The Ford Capri, originally picked up by its first lucky owner on September 25, 1975, at the local Ford dealer, shines in its original color. The interior is a tribute to a time when class and style went hand in hand. In our showroom in Katwijk, we invite you to explore the story and history of this iconic car, immersing yourself in the spirit of proud car ownership from a bygone era.
A driving experience like no other
Step in and feel the excitement of the Ford Capri. This incredibly fun classic, now available for enthusiasts, is your ticket to the summer of your dreams. With its 1300 cc four-cylinder engine, delivering 60 hp, this Capri is perfectly tuned for today's traffic. The smooth 4-speed manual gearbox elegantly transfers power to the rear wheels, making every ride a nostalgic journey.
Foundation of Capri models
The Capri offered is not just any car; it is the foundation, the originator of many later Capri models. Ford Europe introduced a mini muscle car in 1969 specifically for European roads, and the Capri was born. This classic beauty has stood the test of time and is now offered by HooG Selections to enthusiasts who want to own a piece of automotive history.
Racing heritage and motorsport statement
The Capris made a mark in racing. From international rallies to circuit races, the Capri showcased its power. The legendary 'RS2600,' based on the '2600GT,' achieved successes in 1970 and was later updated in 1971. In 1974, the 'RS3100' was introduced with Formula 1 technology, a true masterpiece with 460 hp at 9200 RPM. In the racing world, the Capri made an indelible statement with the Group 5 Zakspeed. This extremely modified racer, with its 1. 7L Cosworth engine and 540 hp, dominated the Group 5 Championship, showing the world what the Capri was truly capable of. Of course, this Zakspeed is not comparable to the street-legal Capri we offer, but it is the foundation of one of the most iconic race cars the Group 5 Championship has ever known.
