This 1982 Ford Capri is far from your average classic—under its shabby exterior hides a serious performance build. Powered by a supercharged 2.9i V6, it features an Eaton M112 supercharger, MS2 programmable ECU, larger injectors, and a Kent 284° camshaft, making it a true sleeper. With a Cosworth clutch cover, Helix paddle clutch, and Sportex twin exhaust, it delivers raw power with an incredible soundtrack. Suspension and braking upgrades include lowered front springs, adjustable top mounts, 2.8i anti-roll bars, and AP 4-pot calipers, ensuring it handles as well as it pulls.
Cosmetically, it’s rough around the edges, with blistered lacquer, scruffy interior, and a few quirks, but this is a driver’s car, built for performance, not polish. The MT75 gearbox is noisy, the sunroof leaks, and the exhaust knocks, but with a full MOT on sale, it’s a solid, road-ready beast. If you want a Capri that stands out—not for its looks, but for what’s under the bonnet—this is it.
