    And you have charging facilities at each end ?

    Electric will be ideal for you and so much cheaper than petrol powered

    I'm a keen AI user so it's been fed a lot of information from me in the past… I asked it to make me a car and I think it knows more about me than I do 😳

    Here is my take on what the Ford Capri mk 4 should have looked like, rather than the bloated $$$$ that it has ended up

    Very cool stuff 66Mustang and Wibbles! I think I'll have a go at getting Ai to design a car for me as well.

    Maybe something like a Ford Cortina or Ford Sierra comeback. 😊

    Here is an original 1982 mk5 Ford Cortina.

    And here is the 2026 version that I got Ai to make. I've got to say it looks great! Totally modern while still looking similar to the original.

    @Ross1975

    I like that! I can almost see a Passat/Arteon front, but the back end is kind of Honda Civic-like… in other words (to me) takes one of the cleanest front ends and welding it to the cleanest rear end… 😆

    How about a KIA EV3 4 seater convertible ?

    Putting aside the fact that times change and that making several overlapping SUVs does seem to make business sense today, I don't understand why they needed to use the Mustang / Capri name on those cars?

    I imagine (in general) somebody who knows the original models will disapprove of their use on an electric SUV; while a young person or non-car person in the market for an electric SUV won't be impressed by the words "Capri" or "Mustang' in the first place & would buy the car on its merits (which I reluctantly admit these cars do have) even if they named it something else

    Recycling old model names is much cheaper for the brand than going through all the legal hassle of using a brand new name. It wasn't done for nostalgia, purely financial.

    How we all see thingsdifferently … i see a skoda Octavia/ mixed with an Audi side with Astra headlights and grill … but really cool wheels. They'd look much nicer on that AI Capri above

    I bet you're too young to remember the days of the cut n shuts ? Going to a salvage yard and buying 2 cars to do exactly as you wrote. Mad days before the laws changed

    Inflating tires with a pump without purchasing special insurance will soon be prohibited...
