About the Ford Capri Mk2 3.0 #9 G. Spice Gordon Spice Group Winner Brands Hatch BSCC 1978 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Ford Capri Mk2 3.0 reproduces #9, the Brands Hatch-winning car from the 1978 British Saloon Car Championship, driven by Gordon Spice for his own Spice Group team. Diecast opening features and tampo-printed livery mark this home-grown BSCC winner for a British touring car collection.

Brands Hatch became something of a home fixture for Gordon Spice's Capris through the late 1970s, and this Spice Group-liveried #9 took victory there during the 1978 British Saloon Car Championship season.

Diecast Detail on a Home-Grown BSCC Winner

Spice Group's livery and race number 9 are tampo-printed directly onto the body, keeping the graphics crisp and durable rather than relying on decals prone to fading. The Capri's long bonnet and wide rear haunches suit diecast proportions well, and Minichamps keeps the panel lines tidy around a body shape built for BSCC's big-banger touring car class. Doors open on functioning hinges to reveal a stripped competition cabin, and the bonnet lifts to expose the 3.0-litre V6 engine bay that made these Capris such formidable BSCC contenders. Diecast weight gives the model genuine heft, and the wide wheel arches and period-correct wheels reflect the aggressive stance these cars needed against rival touring machinery.

Spice, Brands Hatch, and BSCC's Capri Era

Gordon Spice ran his own Capris under his Spice Group banner through much of the BSCC's Capri-dominated period, becoming one of the class's most consistent front-runners at British circuits including Brands Hatch, a venue closely tied to the championship's history. Winning there carried genuine domestic significance, distinct from the Capri's European endurance racing exploits at venues like Spa, and it reflects a different, more sprint-focused side of the model's competition career. That home-soil pedigree gives this particular livery strong appeal for British touring car collectors especially.

A BSCC Winner for a British Touring Car Shelf

Set beside Spice's European Capri liveries, this Brands Hatch winner completes a picture of one driver's success across both domestic and international touring car competition.
