FORD have shared a bizarre update on their upcoming revived Capri model just days head of a global unveiling.
Motorheads are eagerly anticipating the July 10 unveiling of the reborn Capri.
Ford recently confirmed that the Capri will be revealed imminently, and the new model has been spotted testing on public roads.
Now, the latest clue to the new Capri's impending arrival is some graffiti spotted at the Ford plant in Cologne, Germany, that says “the legend is back".
The striking words are accompanied by the dates 1986 and 2024 which along with the location are surely a massive hint at the car's arrival.
Three of the previous generations of the iconic coupe were built in Cologne.
According to reports from , the motor is set to be the first to bear the Capri name since 1986 when the last Mk3 Capri rolled off the production line.
The model is one of the most celebrated and popular in history, enjoying a near 20-year production run before being scrapped.
The German site is now a carbon neutral electric car and battery assembly plant.
It’s reasonable for producing the recently launched Ford Explorer SUV, and will presumably build the next Capri as well, which will also be an EV.
The new EV is expected to line up alongside the Explorer in Ford's e-SUV range.
Reports suggest that it was meant to launch only six months after its sister car, which went on sale in 2022, but was delayed so that the company could overhaul the battery pack.
Ford have already dropper major hints by releasing a pair of snaps of its upcoming electric SUV.
The photos were sent out via an unusual interactive advert placed in a number of print publications.
Running under the title of "comeback cars" it quoted Manchester United legend Eric Cantona saying: "When the seagulls follow the trawler, it’s because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea.
“Now, throw these images in the online sea and find out who follows."
The listing then asked readers to text the word 'comeback' to a dedicated WhatsApp profile and those who did were rewarded with two snapshots of the car, showing its front right and rear left corners.
However, the link between the famous quote and the model has yet to be clarified.
There are also several references to the Capri model in the Comeback Cars ad.
The strapline "the cars you always promised yourself" in the ad is a nod to the campaign for the original Capri.
Meanwhile the numbers ‘1969’ and ‘1986’ in the new advert reference the start and end dates of its production run.
It comes as a major car brand announced that two beloved estate motors will return after a year off the market.
The brand had planned to go SUV-only from this year but confirmed a stunning reversal of the decision just weeks ago.
Just last year, Volvo stated that it was scrapping its entire range of estate models in favour of larger vehicles.
This would then lead into the brand's plans to achieve a fully electric lineup by 2030.
However, last month the firm U-turned on the decision to bring back two of its most popular cars.
