The new 1:32 Turbo Capri from the Zakspeed team looks great on the track with its white base color and is easily recognizable and distinguishable even in difficult lighting conditions. The model is well-proportioned and is known for its excellent handling characteristics. The decals are clean and, for the most part, true to the original. Unfortunately, a mistake crept into production regarding the side stripes—the colors are reversed.
Lili Reisenbichler, the female racing legend of the 1970s, competed in various races with a BMW M1, Ford Escort RS, NSU 1000, Renault R5 Alpine, and Ford Capri. Her greatest success came in 1980 when she took first place in the touring car class of the 1,000-km race at the Nürburgring in a Ford Escort RS 2000.
In addition to the Turbo Capris driven by Klaus Ludwig and Klaus Niedzwiedz, the Zakspeed team also fielded a third Capri in Group 5 with Lili Reisenbichler in most races in 1982. She had worked her way up to this level of racing through the Ford youth development program.
Today, Lili Reisenbichler is active as a Kinder Herz ambassador at many historic racing events, where she drives various vehicles alongside many well-known race car drivers.
