Introduced in 1970, the Cortina Mk3 was a departure from its predecessors in many ways. It featured a modern, aerodynamic design with a distinctive coke-bottle shape, a departure from the boxier styling of previous models. The Mk3 was longer, wider, and more spacious than its predecessors, offering increased interior room and comfort for passengers. One of the most significant advancements in the Mk3 Cortina was its suspension system. Ford replaced the Mk2s cart sprung rear axle with one located by trailing arms, improving ride quality, handling, and overall stability. This innovation set the Mk3 Cortina apart from its competitors and contributed to its reputation as a capable and enjoyable car to drive.
Finished in striking Yellow with Brown vinyl interior 'LLH 705' was first registered on the 8th March 1972 and displays c.60,000 credible miles on the odometer. This Mk3 iteration of the beloved Cortina, has just 4 former keepers recorded on HPI. A rare survivor, particularly being an Estate variant, as many would have seen duties taking families on holiday or countrywide haulers for reps and their samples. It is being offered with a collection of invoices, workshop manuals and a current V5C document.
