  1. Yep pix are always veey good with great back drop nice to see a cortina used all the time . Like the muddy shots aswell makes me feel better about the mud still on mine since classic ford show ( not used since) keep the pic coming
  2. I nearly bought this car from a fella in Croydon the first time round about 8 years ago it was on disabled tax at the time as the fella had a bad or injured leg so being auto was ideal. It did have the ghia wheels as well but I decided against buying that for another cortina. It then went up and A member From here bought it
  3. nice prefer it on sports steels personally not sure those rims suit it as an s , didnt think those rims were available on a mk 4 were these options before the mk 5 canme out? i thought s alloys were the capri ghia/s alloys?# worth a few quid for sure ! but why hide it away !
  4. be nice to see this in the flesh i bet it flys aswell
  5. Not really sure I just fancy a shiny filter instead of the plastic air box really I got a twin weber but not sure what to look for

  8. dug the cAr out of the garage for the summer having ast put her away in august last year new battery, elec ignition , & few other bits sorted but my biggest issue was the cars hieght , i bought some springs form burtons a few months ago so sat they finally went on !! also fitted the lower fogs & fitted the laguna front spoiler dragged her out the spings lol look at the difference much better

  10. Confirmed on fords website ...... mondeo not to ne re named in austrailia as cortina & was a April fools joke by somebody ! Ford not impressed that there "world car "was made a joke off by re naming it cortina ! Was never going to happen just like they will never revive the Capri name lol Would seem a lot of people were duped by it check it out all over face book as well
  11. Fibreglass rear boot spoilers would be a winner , it took me 3 years to get my one
  12. Yep I had a few sets of spot brackets off you mate &!my current Mk 5 wears a set of yours excellent mate as far as I'm concerned
  13. Ford would never re name a global brand like mondeo ESP not calling it cortina I just don't see it , might be an idea but can't see it happening

    my mk 5

    few more revarnished the wood front /rear seat cloth taken off n washed n shampooed n re fitted door cards removed n shampooed did try some fishnet headrests aswell but prefer the ghia ones better so changed back rear plate frt plate [/url tried some various rs rims but prefer the ghia look 15" rs 7 spokes were far too heavy but looked great rs 4 spoke flat face didnt look deep enough debating weather to loose chrome bumpers n go with blck ones i had off an old crusder i had ?

    my mk 5

    origanal no plates mate & still got its rear window sticker yeah fogs need to go under washers i may have to make a bracket or summin as the triangle brackets will bolt into the frt panel but i really prefer to mount on the frt panel rail
