- We are delighted to share with you a cleaned-up, colour-corrected, HD version of the film we uploaded in January 2014. We hope you enjoy it even more now its looking at its best.
This film was produced to launch the Ford Capri as "the car you always promised yourself". Our sophisticated hero is distracted from his 3 very different girlfriends by the eye-catching new Capri. He finds himself in a dilemma as to not only which woman to choose but which of the three exciting Capri models featured in the film he should go for. - Авто та транспорт
Being a Capri owner I love this ad so much . It puts a smile on my face everytime I watch it. 1969 was a different time
I remember - as a 15 year old, in 1969 and not then a particularly car-conscious person - being impressed with the lines of this car. And it still looks good in 2022.
brilliant ad! patrick allen had such a great voice, perfect for this, beautiful cars and beautiful girls! a great world unlike now
Miss My Capri Even more. Totally Cool Commercial. Thanks for the Download .
Me too
Ich habe 1969 bei Ford in Köln meine Ausbildung begonnen, nur wenige Monate nach dem Verkaufsstart im Frühj. 69. Mein erster neuer Ford nach der Übernahme in ein Beschäftigungsverhältnis (für insgesamt 49 Jahre) war ein Ford Capri 73er Ed. Noch Jahrzehnte später äußerten Kollegen, die selbst das Auto noch in der Bauzeit bis 1984 erlebt haben „Das schönste und sorry „geilste“ Auto, welche wir je gebaut haben“. Der letzte Capri wurde dann noch an meinem eigenen Geburtstag gebaut.
My parents & g'mother bought me a 2000GT XLR with special body paint (gold & black) for my 21st birthday!! The only car I have owned (inc. many other new cars) that used to have people gathered around it, peering in to the interior, whilst it was parked in Brighton (and Hove, actually). Made one feel good when they saw a spotty git climbing in - many snide comments. But bugger them.....I had the car!!!
My dad bought this version of Capri in 1975. 1300,dark blue. So many memories with this car... Dad teached me how to change speeds and let me do it. He pushed the clutch and i choose the right speed. I was 6 years old. ❤
I don’t wonder they sold well, this advert reeks of optimism!
Imagine launching a car to today like that, then sit back and watch the fireworks!!
My father had a ´70 Capri 1,7 V4 in green, a short time later the hood and fender cutouts were painted in a matt black RS-style. It was a bautiful car. When he met his future wife, my mother, on the way, he drove her home with the Mk I. On the way he stopped at the edge of the forest and started wiping the dashboard. My mother was amazed ... so much about Capri and women :-)
Love it in hd I want a mk1 Capri now .
The Mark I Capri was sold in the U.S. at Lincoln-Mercury dealers from 1970 to 1975 (to the best of my knowledge) when it was succeeded by the Capri II until 1978. All U.S.-market Capris were built in Saarlouis and Cologne, Germany.
... they looked great with their double headlight !
Great car. Great bit of period advertising too!
The hardest choice would be what color.... they all look good, those 3. But since I have a Welly model of the Capri in red, that will be the one I'd pick, if I could ever own one.
This was filmed in Portugal, Sintra.
My first car the Ford capri RSF269V will never forget the reg no . brilliant car
Ford leads the way theme music used in Australia too.
It was a nice car. Shame though that after mk I Capri was discontinued, sales weren't as good on the mk II Capri with the facial changes and with the mk III Capri things dropped drastically as hot hatches started to eat it's coat tails and raced ahead of it.
The european Mustang...
Love it
Still think the MK1 was the best looking. I had the 3.0l GTXLR for 10 years, loved it, I still think they should have left the styling alone and just make it a hatchback.
bring bk the capr11
i wishd id had 4 capris 2 yellow ones and 2 red ones
Great music - Shazam's not identifying it - sounds almost a bit like Pebble Mill theme - anyone know what it is?
stevealexR1 Fords own theme song : ‘Ford leads the way ‘
What market was this film for? The cars are all left hand drive, and they're using kilometers instead of miles per hour.
gotham61 and the Cologne rather than the Kent/Essex engine sizes.
Marcomanseckisax The Essex 3.0 became available after September 1969 , thisis before that
Why does the narrator sound familiar?
The bloke in this ad who is so irresistible to women looks about 58.
There were "sugar daddies" back then too.
I WOULD LOVE TO OWN 232+500 CARS AND ALSO 3 CAPRIS
I WISHD ID HAD SOME DAY CAPRI AND BMW 2002
Simple solution: pick the Capri over the 3 women, at least the Capri is an appreciating asset while women only go down hill and the running costs are way too high.
The three women seems to be each 25 years younger than the gentleman😳
