Perennial favourite of dodgy minicab drivers, it's the Ford Cortina. As, according to this advert, it's also the second coming of Christ himself.

@joh2 But the Sierra always looked ugly where as the Cortina always looked beautiful.

I own a Ford Cortina Mk5. It is a 1982 and it is Blue. I picked it up from a Town Market (In my Village) for £100 in 2006. It is really fun to drive and it has a Great Sound Track.

@blaster2012 I drive the Cortina's smaller Escort Mk2 counterpart, and it stands up well in modern traffic - including traffic jams on hot days...
I'll agree on the welding point though - the Cortina's rust issues where roadsalt was used sometimes rivalled that of Lancia...

the pinto engines were not that great,biggest problem was premature camshaft wear due to lack of oil,not much go either. i had a few,easy to work on though.

@matsui2001 The lower spec models are becoming rather thin on the ground too - not 'up-speccing' them is a selling point.

@NotMarkX This is the 1982 Ford Cortina - by 1984 the Cortina looked old hat when parked alongside a Sierra...

My last Cortina was a MKV 2L Ghia - the same as in this ad. I sold it about 7 years ago for £500 - now it would be worth £2000 beause it was in top condition. Only problem was i sold it to a mate and it got nicked and burnt out .....cuntz.
