Please NOTE :- Incorrect Event Pairing ~ The poster displays a plaque for the "East African Safari". Historically, the #31 Ford Capri RS 2600 in this specific blue and yellow livery did not compete in the East African Safari. It famously competed in European rallies, such as the 1971 Rally Wiesbaden.
Please NOTE :- Incorrect Co-Driver - The poster text reads "Walter Röhrl / Herbert Mahler". During the 1971 season (including the Rally Wiesbaden), Walter Röhrl's co-driver for the #31 Capri RS 2600 was actually Hannes Maracek. He did not team up with Herbert Mahler for this vehicle or event.
Rest of the car’s details are accurate ✅. We checked. The 1971 Ford Capri RS2600 was produced by Ford of Germany at the Niehl plant in Cologne, Germany. The high-performance, Kugelfischer fuel-injected Cologne V6 engines were developed in collaboration with Weslake in Britain though.
