Although ive never met steve that's near enough EXACTLY how I'd imagined him to look,but with a mullet!!!!nothing offensive meant,just you build up a picture of someone and then often it's totally shocking when you see them,but that's exactly how I imagined him!!!
Supercool car as well,even looked tasteful back in 99 especially compared to the shite around back then,credit it to you,you giant!!!!

Loved that old Cortina, had loads of fun driving it.

Was a great laugh, it was only a stage 1 with a T3 and yellows.
After the redesign i reshelled it into a 2dr MkV Cortina, with this car i done a test day with Performance Ford at Brunters.
0-60 = 5.64
0-100 = 13.1
146.7mph top speed lol
Not bad for a brick.
So yes you could say it used to upset a lot of things on the road

A crash barrier at 130KPH after a rear tyre blowout, spun round in the road 6 times.
I only had a scratch as well, very lucky.

Well,without the bonnet it would have been more aerodynamic!!!!loved the 2dr cortina,but that's a proper rare beast now.
My old man had a cortina,2.0 gl auto,was 3 years old when he bought it and was a good car considering he did ZERO maintenance on it in 10years nearly!!!only replaced items when they completely failed,not the most sensible theory.
