Ford Capri 3.0S (British Saloon Car Championship 1982) in White (1:43 scale by Vanguards VA10806)
This diecast model Ford Capri 3.0S (British Saloon Car Championship 1982) is White and features working wheels.
Capris dominated the British Saloon Car Championship (BSCC) in the late 1970s, but by 1981 were starting to look outdated and outclassed by the cleverly homologated TWR built Rover SD1 V8. However, Vince Woodman led one last Capri hurrah during the 1982 season, winning four races outright in his Neil Brown engined, CC Developments prepared car, and battling all year with works Rover driver Jeff Allam.
Woodman looked to set to steal once last championship for the Capri, and led the last round of the series at Silverstone until Gordon Spice punted him over the chicane leaving Allam victorious in Class A by 3 points.
1:43 scale (approx. 9cm / 3.5in long) - made by Vanguards.
