  3. They were the car of the day, so easy to modify, every part from a cortina would fit, I put a Lotus Cortina engine in mine, with cortina back axle 4in wider, Consul Classic front suspension with disks!!!! and negative camber. Brilliant car.

    it cost me £65, and after three months, I sold it to my uncle for £60 - it would be around 1974/5

  7. I was justifying a Metro because of the 6R4, but thought that was cheating, so went for something else.
