Chris Wilson Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 If a mate said he drove an old Lotus Cortina MK1 you'sd probably pity him. In fact he is driving a brilliant investment and a seriously expensive bit of kit. I have known 2 cars sell for similar money already this year.

Digsy Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 I thought these passed into the realms of rare classic a while ago, Chris? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKEYmark Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 i seen a lotus cortina at blackpool ford show with lots of other old fords. the lotus engine looked so tiny. some of the cars there were a bit strange hand painted cars with brush hairs on the paint work. there was a capri convertable that looked home made. there was also a cossie capri marked up as a 2.0l s or something. the one in your link looks like a money no object car. there is also one that goes to elvington and races it. got a more up to date engine. the lotus cortina and mk1 capri do look great classic cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
