What Can I Expect

Drive a classic Ford Capri! This is your chance to go driving in the car that wowed us all when it launched in 1969. With that long bonnet and fast-back styling, this was the original European pony car!

You can't talk about the Ford Capri without feeling a little nostalgic. With adverts that told us this was ‘the car you'd always promised yourself' and a ‘genuine fastback that doesn't cost a fortune', Ford had hit the nail on the head. In terms of style, it was utterly groundbreaking.

Even today, a Capri really stands out amongst both classic and modern cars. As there are only around 2500 roadworthy ones left in the UK, they are becoming more sought after as they become increasingly rare. So it's no surprise that these Capri drives are selling like hot cakes!

You will be driving a 1972 Mark 1 Capri. In our humble opinion, this first series, which ran from its launch in 1969 to 1974, was the best. What's more, this particular Capri on these driving experiences is a little bit special…

Under that super long bonnet you'll find a whopping 4.6l V8 engine. The engine mod means this lovely British Capri goes XXL on performance. And of course, it's rear wheel drive, so be prepared for this Capri to go a tad tail-happy in the wet!

You have the choice of a three-mile blast or a six-mile thrill drive in the Capri. Experiences are available at a large range of circuits around the country, so this stunning Capri is bound to be coming to a track near you.

The perfect gift for anyone who remembers this wonderful two-door fastback from back in the day, or any motoring fan who knows how iconic this car is. Buy vouchers online now for your drive in a Ford Capri straight out of the 70s!
