My favourite car from the 1970's
The MkIII Ford Cortina.
This bad boy was the ultimate seventies plush-mobile. And don’t get me wrong, the Mk4 and 5 Cortinas were more modern looking, albeit a bit boxy, and you know what it’s like, the newer model always tends to make the older version look, well, old.
And you know what, I couldn’t tell you a thing about the mark’s performance or reliability, I was only 11 when the seventies ended, so for me it was all about the look and the image.
I loved the look of this beast, and yeah, if I could, I’d get me a hold of one and drop an all-electric engine into it, turning it into a reborn eco-wagon of green-powered salvation.
