A well-known British icon used as a sales car or family saloon… the Cortina did it all.
Fitted with the original Rostyle wheels, they have been refurbished and are in excellent condition, topped off with classic chrome trims.
The tyres are a matching set in like-new condition, having covered only a few miles.
Please take time to review the photos and videos for a detailed view of the exterior, wheels, and tyres so you can make your own assessment of their condition.
Tyres are a key safety item, and you should consider replacing any that are cracked, perished, unevenly worn, or over 10 years old.
The Cortina’s body has had a considerable amount of work carried out, as can be seen in the documented photographs.
Both rear quarter panels were replaced, along with the wings and some floor sections.
Looking around the car, the panels appear to align well, and no dings or dents were spotted.
The underside deserves a separate mention, as this is stunning and just as clean...
