Lot details
Registration No: YLN627G
Chassis No: BA97JR00948
Mot Expiry: May 2005

The Dagenham-built Ford Cortina was launched in 1962, though only with 1198 or 1498cc engine options for the nation's sales reps. Motor sports enthusiasts started taking the model seriously, though, when the 83bhp GT Cortina with front disc brakes started to appear on rallies in large numbers. Outright wins became common with the MkI and MkII shelled 105bhp Lotus twin cams that followed. For many, though, the most desirable Cortina of all was the luxurious 1600E.
This 1969-manufactured 1600E has had five previous owners. The right-hand drive car has been in receipt of a new four-door bodyshell, the current condition of which is described as very good as is the paintwork in Ford Green. The seats in cream leather are said to be excellent, while 1599cc four-cylinder engine and four-speed manual gearbox are reportedly in good order.
The 66,532 miles displayed when entered is believed by the vendor to be the genuine total mileage. The current MOT certificate will be valid until next May.
