95 Caprices. With Statesman gone how long before this gets the chop.

Caprice PPV isn't selling that much either, how long can they keep LWB going?

I cant see the Caprice getting a big overhall with VF...

No doubt they will just give it a bit of a nose tuck and change the wheels / trims...

'VF' Caprice may well be the equivalent of the BA/BF Fairlane.

Minimal expenditure that amounts to a tweaked nose and tail (that's more similar than ever to the donor car) and the nicest interior bits from the donor car.

It may have been an unpopular decision with a lot of Ford fans, but Fomoco Oz quietly dropping the Fairlane was a very wise move.
