I do like "ghost signs", what a cool shot.

Kids with toy guns & a terraced street with hardly any cars in it !

Hurricane 'Low Q' 1968 threw the toys out of the pram at Fords too.

Blowing down chimney-stacks was one of it's party tricks.

They'll probably never find the 'O' from that Consul badge now.

It has a boot-lock fitted, so it looks like maybe the whole rear section lifted up like a tailgate.

Passat Malzoni fixed hardtop coupe which went into production. Hints of late 60s Mustang roof.

Imagine the rear view of the cross between an Orion and a Mustang II.

Some sort of Brazilian Passat idea from 1977.

This has my imagination rolling, a slant 6 or V8 rwd 2+2 coupe Passat.

Greater Manchester Police used Capris for pursuit cars.

A mate had a blue V-reg 1300CL one of these around 1988, looked pretty similar to this one. Bought for £40 with 3 months' MOT.  You couldn't open the rear hatch as the whole hinge area was crumbly rotten, the rear edge of the roof skin was 3 full-width strips of duct tape.  Floor was rotten and sitting in the passenger seat was like being in a rocking chair. Great fun to thrash about.

This one's actually a pre-production test mule. (At least I think it is).

That reminds me of the launch advert for the Peugeot 206. Still makes me chuckle to this day.

My head is not so politically correct at the moment. Should not the drivers of the open door thing and the Maxi swap?

Not the only thing that won't run flat, then.
