Real Capris are made by Ford... NOT Mazda

Real Capris come from England or Germany... NOT Australia

Real Capris are based on the Ford / Lotus Cortina chassis, NOT the Mazda 323

Real Capris have longitudinally mounted engines, THE WAY GOD INTENDED IT. Transaxles are for wimps...

Real Capris have rear wheel drive, NOT some econo-box derived front wheel drive

Real Capris have live rear axles. Don't call it primitive. Call it simple, lightweight and robust. We don't need no stinking independant rear ends.

Real Capris have power bulges in the bonnet. And actaully need them

Real Capris have "U" shaped (O.K. a U that has fallen over sideways) rear quarter windows

Real Capris are capable of adapting to just about any Ford (or Cosworth!) engine. We aren't restricted to one little Mazda engine block

Finally... Real Capris aren't named after something you put up a cow's arse!!!!!
