I love the Mk1 Golf, but I also have fond memories of our neighbours until 1979 having a Red Fiesta 1.1L. I think it was on an 'R' plate and so a very early one. It just seemed so well designed for a small car. I've always been keen on practical cars & I really wanted my dad to get one, instead of our Avenger. Awesome collection of cars. 👍👍

I’ve always loved the Cortina, ideally I’d have a mkIII if the budget allowed. That mkIII is one of the best I’ve seen, and the MkIV was superb!

Congratulations Alex. Very well done indeed i'm not far behind you. I wonder what Bruce would make of my estate. His cars are brilliant I am slightly jealous.

Having seen that beautiful Capri I’m even more annoyed with Ford for that horrendous new Crap-E.

FORD marketing campaign strategy Using names like MUSTANG n CAPRI instead of the FORD branding ...........it's all a ploy Like what Renault have done ....

In less safety conscious days, on a family day ,that boot would have held 4 unrestrained children seated on cushions. Typically there would be two or three vehicles in our convoy. Happy memories but ohhhhh the risk!! Doesn't bare thinking of today.
