I remember my Dad's Cortina with its Vinyl seats that in the summer you couldn't sit on they got that hot in the sun

Very good car, here in Argentina is known as Taunus, on holiday in January on the province of Mendoza caught my attention in very good condition one circulating on the street. This is the link to the commercial here.

Owned a 2 door Mk 1 years ago.

Liked Gene thrashing his Mk 111 Life on Mars.

In Australia Ford fitted 4.1 Litre -250 cubic inch engines to them but they had a habit of catching fire.

Nothing compared to competitors Holden Torana that had 5 litre V8 -308 cubic inches - to Cortina size car.
