Based on the 315 the Capri was named 335, but this wasn't used in the sales name? (This was not the chassis code, btw) |

Does anyone know what those number meant? There was at least one other Consul at the time, the Consul 375 http://www.classicperformanceford.com/Ford_Consul_375_445XUJ/page01.htm . |

Long answer: Ford were trying to establish the sub-brand Ford Consul in the early 60s, covering the original Consul Mk2 [204E/205E], the Consul Classic, the Consul Capri, the Consul Cortina and the Consul Corsair, but abandoned the idea halfway through. So Consul 375 was up and running, Classic became Consul 315, Capri the Consul 335, Cortina was about to be launched as Consul 225 and maybe Consul 440 (unsure about this, but it survived as a system on Aus-built cars with 220/240/440 for different door and engine combinations. No number found for what the Consul Corsair might have had, but it was originally intended to launch as Consul Classic Mk2. The Consul Classic with or without 315 and Capri with/without 335 has been debated before on these pages - seems European destinations were marketed with the numbers, but not emphasised in UK. |

In the French ad I linked above the Consul sedan is referred to using number designation. The Capri (the subject of the ad) isn't. |
