Details:

The Ford Capri RS 3100 is one of the most iconic touring cars of the 1970s, developed by Ford for high-level competition in European motorsport. Based on the Ford Capri road car, the RS 3100 was the ultimate evolution of the Capri racing programme, built to dominate Group 2 touring car racing with increased power, reduced weight, and aggressive aerodynamic upgrades.

Powered by the legendary 3.1-litre Essex V6 engine, the Capri RS 3100 became a key competitor in the European Touring Car Championship and national series across the UK and Europe. It was famously campaigned by top privateer and semi-works teams, often battling against rivals such as BMW CSL and Chevrolet Camaro in intense touring car grids.

With its widened arches, rear spoiler, and lightweight construction, the RS 3100 delivered strong straight-line speed and competitive handling for its era. It became especially well known for its appearances at circuits like Brands Hatch, Silverstone, and Nürburgring, where touring car racing was at its most aggressive and competitive.

For slot car racing enthusiasts, the Ford Capri RS 3100 is a classic 1970s touring car icon, offering authentic retro racing heritage, distinctive British Ford styling, and exciting sideways racing action, making it a must-have model for historic touring car slot racing layouts.
