Ford billed the Capri as 'The car you always promised yourself' and some 1.9 million customers agreed during the production years of 1968 to 1986. The original plan for the run-out of this European 'pony car' was to build 500 turbo examples with the assistance of independent specialist Turbo Technics. However, with 1,038 chassis still needing homes, the ultimate decision was taken to christen them 'Capri 280' and equip each one with Brooklands Green paintwork, Red-piped Raven Black interior trim and 15inch seven-spoke alloy wheels. Around 10 percent of purchasers opted for the turbo conversion, while the remaining cars were normally aspirated. Even in unturbocharged form the performance was brisk, with 60mph available in 7.8 seconds and a top speed of 130mph.

One of just 1,038 Capri 280 Brooklands made, this is one of eight automatic transmission examples produced and is understood to use the same 'C3' transmission as the Granada. Displaying just c.20,000 miles from new, the car has mainly been in storage since 1992. Presenting as a very solid example with excellent shut lines on the doors and boot, the paint would benefit from attention in some areas. Recently put back into service for an event it is currently MOT'd until December 2026. A rare opportunity to acquire an automatic Brooklands, offered with V5C and history file.
