allyharp 2 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Did they have a Ford Capri in the Professionals?aye, a white one. It's a cool program then.I'm thinking there was a program similar to the Professionals though - same idea of cops chasing guys around with a lot of car chases. What could it be?

MK Alex 0 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Did they have a Ford Capri in the Professionals?They had 3. An Escort RS2000 was used in a couple of episodes and they had a few scary moments in a Rover 3500. Mostly it was the Capri's... Yeah both Bodi and Doyle eventually ended up have their very own Capris and I think it was our very own Gordon Jackson aka Cowley had the Rover/Ford Granada (I think) - an he often liked his little tipple of fire water!

We get opinions on the strangest things on RM Live back axle I always thought they were an exciting car to drive although in all honesty I only drove my cousins Capri a couple of times, and at 19 years old I thought I was one of the Professionals Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
