So I am a day behind with Name That Car updates, so this is Thursday's car, which was this very splendid, Ford Capri MkI in very period yellow with black vinyl roof, which I suspect would have been a sought-after option to complete the sporty look.

Ford Capri MKI 1600

Early 70's Capri 1600 is a very period yellow with a black vinyl roof. A lovely looking thing, but it must have been hot and sticky in the back on a sunny day!

Popped to the supermarket this afternoon to pick up a few groceries. Spotted this 'live in the flesh' for the first time in the car park.

OMG, what were Ford thinking, to take a European design favourite and convert it to a mobile washing machine 🤣
Thoughts 🤔

Dear UK car nerds...

It's been a long time since I've sat in a MGB GT (~1996) and even longer since I've sat in a Mk1 Capri (~1983).

How do these cars compare to one another when sitting in the cabin?

Does one have a better feeling of quality?

Does one feel more comfortable for a six foot tall person? I don't remember feeling cramped in either but that was decades ago and 40 lbs lighter. Ha.
