The pipe just makes this perfect. I doubt it’s even got any tobacco in it, ‘Not in here old chap, Alec wouldn’t like it’.

If the sign on the wall is significant that's a very special Capri.

FF means Ferguson Formula and viscous coupled 4 wheel drive; they devised the drive system for the Jensen FF, they also converted at least one Triumph Stag, several Opel Monzas for the army to use in Berlin and probably other things I can't remember.

4WD?

It is a Ferguson Formula Ford Capri.

Here's Roger Clark testing the car at Boreham..

If the livery looks familiar it is because Corgi made a toy of it.

It's great how the passing coach balances the picture nicely, in composition and also colour.

Great photography; image search found me where it came from, shame about the bilge write-up lazily attributing it all to the Maggon. You can still find misery, pissed guys, crying weans covered in snotters and broken windaes in Glasgow now, they're just further from the city centre than they used to be.

What strikes me most about Depardon's photos is just how black the buildings are from the soot compared to now.
