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 reproduces the #9 Ford Capri Mk2 3.0 that won at Brands Hatch for Gordon Spice in the 1978 British Saloon Car Championship. A confirmed domestic sprint-race win, built with sharp livery detail for collectors following Spice's British touring car career.

Spice made his name as much on British short circuits as at European endurance rounds, and Brands Hatch was one of his most familiar hunting grounds.

A Domestic Sprint Livery, Distinct From Endurance Racing

Where Spice's Spa entries ran as part of round-the-clock endurance crews, this Brands Hatch BSCC round was a single-driver domestic sprint race, and the livery reflects that difference: a leaner sponsor scheme suited to a shorter, sharper contest rather than an around-the-clock livery built for visibility in changing light. Minichamps' diecast reproduces the #9 graphics with the same tight tampo-printed registration used across its motorsport range, and the Capri's stance sits low and purposeful, tuned for a British short circuit rather than Spa's long straights. Doors and hood open on this build, showing the stripped racing cabin behind the correctly proportioned fastback bodywork.

Gordon Spice's British Touring Car Legacy

Spice's Capri campaigns across the late 1970s spanned both British domestic racing and European endurance rounds, and collecting entries from both sides of that career shows the full range of his competitive record rather than just its best-known moments. A confirmed Brands Hatch win adds a genuine result to a Capri lineup rather than a generic BSCC-era livery, and displayed beside his Spa-winning entries, this car completes a more rounded picture of one of the Capri's most successful privateer racers.
