Started in 2006, here is an early start at trying the modern treatment on the Capri coupe shape. All new panels - absolutely nothing carried over from my MK1 model. Surprised it looks so much like a Capri. This is where the basic shape and design started to evolve. The new design 5 spoke RS Alloys were developed from the classic 4 spoke design, and evolved even further with a split-rim design. The early stages of the X'-Pack style arches were beginnning to take shape.
