stevepeanut Posted November 15, 2009 Report Posted November 15, 2009 well theres no chance of my capri being ready in the near future, so sold one of my motorbikes to get a few ££ in and bought this cortina. Does anyone recognise it? big thanks to Dave - cortinamad, for all the help and advice on buying one looks standard ish, but its got a 5 speed and 15 inch alloys and its polybushed

Ste-V Posted November 15, 2009 Report Posted November 15, 2009 How much did that set you back Steve? Looks a tidy old bus Good luck with it pal, love Cortinas
Chris! Posted November 15, 2009 Report Posted November 15, 2009 Use to belong to someone on here, Dave somebody I think, then it went to a cortina breaker in lancashire, then to the bloke you bought it off
stevepeanut Posted November 15, 2009 Author Report Posted November 15, 2009 How much did that set you back Steve? Looks a tidy old bus Good luck with it pal, love Cortinas got it for £650, was a gamble cos I hit the buy it now without seeing it. Earlier in the week I seen another one which was not as nice but very solid. He said I could take it away for £500 and he'd stop the auction. I said I'd think about it and offered £450 the next day, he said no. I then said ok I'll give you the £500, he was a bit funny with me and said no I am letting it run to the end, you should have took it when you had the chance. His auction ended on Sat, £411 lol But it was a gamble paid off cos I got the better car. And I got a set of ghia wheels thrown in too. Drives nicely, but needs a service/tune. And a 2.0 pinto
Ste-V Posted November 15, 2009 Report Posted November 15, 2009 Sounds good pal I give just short of £600 for my Cortina, didn't look half as tidy as that
