I agree, I still have my Mk3 Ford cortina 2 l8tr GXL 2-door . I.h.d. for 30years & a triumph saloon 2 l8tr 6- cylinder mk1. They will never die! 😃😍😍😍😄😂😂😂😂😂👍👌✌

What an interesting collection of rusty cars. I used to love going round scrap yards looking for Cortina parts back in the early eighties and would spend hours in them before Health and Safety put a stop to it all.

I have never been stopped from looking around a scrap yard. Health sand safety will investigate why an old engine was dropped on your head. It will not stop you standing under it if you insist.

Old/Classic cars are lovely to look at now. Believe me when i say cold/frozen mornings in the 1960/70s were desperate times getting the bloody things to start to get you to work. I own a classic btw but from the early 1980s

The pencil is mightier that the computer. In the 70's my bro had a MK 1 lotus Cortina it was beautiful. I had a 1600 GT MK2 Cortina. Forever visiting the scrapyards back in the day.

What a lovely film, things really were much nicer back then.

I wish someone had told me I was driving an "instant classic" in my 1964 Lotus Cortina that I bought in 1968! Back in those days none of these cars were considered of value since they were relatively common and not costly. That Cortina that I sold around 1970 for about 450 quid could be worth over 100 000 today I believe - crazy but true!

That is one beautiful 1600E........

I had a burgundy red G reg 1600E in the 80's, it was lovely.

The last sentence spoken is funny and so true! 😅

If only I lived in England, I'd buy a British car. My favourite cars have always been the Ford Mark II Cortina 1600E, the Ford Cortina Mark IV, the Austin FX4 "London Taxi", the Jaguar XJ6, and the earliest Range Rover models. :)

Great . Thank you.

In the day I owned an ermine white 1969 'H' reg 1600E. I had to sell because I was skint (debts). However I now have an 1970 ermine white 'H' reg for parts, and a 1971, J reg (last month of production) aubergine 1600E, my daily driver. I don't need a laptop to fix it. Also in my youth I could change the clutch in a 105E Anglia, in 48 minutes! I'm still trying to find a decent 1200E. well you need a pair of Ford, wings, to fly.

oddly enough American influence returned for the MK3 model with it's coke bottle look, but by the 80s the tables had turned, American cars were influenced by cars from Germany and Italy
