1974 Ford Capri GXL review from Australia and New Zealand
"A quick classic sports machine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My points burnt out at 58,000 miles.
Some rust has recently appeared, under the vinyl roof.
My front wheel bearings required replacement at 60,000 miles.
General comments?
My Capri is real fast, and holds the road like a new car.
For it's age this car is in mint condition.
