Default Immaculate 1967 Mk2 Lotus Cortina rep *SOLD*

Here for sale is my 1967 Mk2 2 door Cortina. Full bare shell resto only 2 years ago. It was a classic ford cover car last year.

The shell is a red GT Model originally. I have recently updated log book to a white 2.0.
HPI Clear with something like only 5 owners from new. will double check on v5 tomor
8 months MOT

Tax exempt and costs me £200 a year to insure fully comp with everything declared. So very cheap to own.

Spec is..


2.0 zetec with custom sump, mounts etc. to run zetec longitudinally
ZXR9 carbs
Lightened & balanced flywheel
Mega Jolt programmable Management
5 speed type 9 box
Capri front shocks with lowering springs and rear lowering blocks
Capri 2.8i front brakes
Goodridge hoses
Full rear roll cage with cross peices
Suede OMP steering wheel
escort cosworth grey hex recaros
13" minilites
CD/MP3/Ipod/Aux head unit with JBL 6x9's


Paint is immaculate. No stone chips or dings, and you will not find a spec of rust anywhere on this car.

Was rolling roaded at 167 bhp.

The rev counter reads double for some reason and the speedo and oil pressure gauage are not connected (oil pressure gauge pipe is there just needs a zetec fitting on the end).

Price is £5995 No offers


Thanks for looking.

Thanks guys. Bad time of year to sell but getting fed up of people wasting my time. for example asking for things like pictures of window rubbers then never getting back to me.

This is an excellent example of a 45 year old car. You will not find similar.

Need it gone now as the cossie is sat waiting for me! Sensible offers will be excepted

This is absolutely lovely!

Love it - shouldn't hang around long. Would love another Mk2 Cortina at some point - hope there's one like this for sale when I'm looking in the future

Good luck with the sale - my XR2 has only been up for sale a few hours and I've already had my share of the time wasters so I feel your pain!
