Hyundai did not buy up the Cortina tooling: the first car they built was the Mark II Cortina under licencefollowed by the Marks III, IV and V. When Ford discontinued the Cortina in 1982, Hyundai simply rebodied it and fitted a Mitsubishi engine - the Stellar.

I always remember the girls particularly the girl on the Phillips stand. WOW! On a motrobike. I know this is the motor show. But she drew the highest crowds. I think her name was Jane. What a stunner!

We laughed back then at the Korean car industry, whose laughing now though ?

[@James-gf9jl]

I like any car which has an arial.

Wow, fascinating to see the introduction of piety and naggy browbeating into the social sphere. Looks like woke is not a recent invention. More leggy lovelies please!!

The pompous, chauvinistic airhead in the pink jumper was new for 1986, and one has to feel very sorry for the poor women being oppressively and aggressively patronised. It was a good audition for Radio 4, though.

She's not aged well..

God she was insufferable.

I’m glad Hyundai have come a long way.
