It is commonly acknowledged that long-range weather forecasts are, even nowadays, about as accurate as one of Jacqui Smith's expense claims. Which is why it is with some scepticism this week that we heard early MET office predictions of a long, hot summer to come. No - seriously this time. Honestly. Maybe. In theory.

In case you long for the days when summers were warm, and beaches were covered with nautical detritus and green-gold cars, we came across this terrific Ford marketing picture for the Mk1 Capri, resplendent in predictable 1970s sunshine.

Fingers crossed, eh?

Ford re-released our image this week to help promote birthday celebrations for the Capri. 40 years young, and still looking fabulous!
