It was only a matter of time before someone mentioned the 1966 World Cup. They think it's all over, it is now bla bla bla bla bla

Thanks again everyone for your kind Birthday wishes.

Thanks Numi, funnily enough I remember a neighbour of my mum and dads back in 71 or 72 had a Mk1 Cortina in red and my dad had a Mk2 in blue, it had vinyl seats that got so hot in the summer you couldn't sit on it, mum always had to put a jaggy tartan travel blanket on the seat before me and my brother and 2 sisters could sit down. Great memories

Mk1 lotus cortina has to be my 1:1 holy grail car the noise from those twin side draft Webber carbs is unbeatable....... Why didn't Lesney make one .....

Happy Birthday, Alex!
