Capri 2.8i. Black, it was. A beautiful car. It was later stolen from outside a different lady's house while I was engaged in certain intimate activities, this one in Welling.

Escort, Capri, Cortina or Granada, those gearboxes fairly clicked into place. One's first Ford (and usually last) with a woolly indecisive gear box was a major blow to all of us I think.

Yes, I remember a chap I knew who sold his Mk 2 RS2000 (theone with the nose cone, you know) and bought an XR3. When I drove it I almost puked.
