Slammed Posted September 22, 2012 Report Posted September 22, 2012 ffs why? hopefully wont be put anything past drawings as a mk1 cortina is a mk1 cortina- not that!!! and it will be fwd
theloudboy Posted September 22, 2012 Report Posted September 22, 2012 Looking at that is it the same guy who done the aston martin.
lurch914 Posted September 22, 2012 Author Report Posted September 22, 2012 They will ruin what ever they make, they tried to say the probe was the new Capri when that came out enough said about that
over_head_cam Posted September 22, 2012 Report Posted September 22, 2012 I like it. A few tweaks and lose the Focusy look of the front spoiler.
Jeff HPE Motorsport Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 I like it. A few tweaks and lose the Focusy look of the front spoiler. I also like it as well !! Jeff Harris.
5tox Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 i quite like that, its probably just a concept car that will never happen though
Admin Vista Posted September 23, 2012 Admin Report Posted September 23, 2012 I like it too but much like the "capri mk4" designs we saw a few years back it' just a design marketing exercise
5tox Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 They will ruin what ever they make, they tried to say the probe was the new Capri when that came out enough said about that I never knew that, to say the probe was a replacement for the capri is a bit of an insult to capri owners, i never liked the probe
Streetfighter Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 Being a proud owner of a daily driver MK1 Cortina I can honestly say I can't wait for Ford to make that.. As soon as that gamma shaped, Aston, Focus truck rip off comes out I can flip my '65 end ways and it will still double in value haha
5tox Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 kinda looks like the bmw mini from the front
banarama Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 no not for me . the mk1 cortina is just how it should be left as a legend
LUKE261 Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 Like it but does look like the new aston martin from the front
jayremedy Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 You can't improve the Mk1 Tina. Step away from the drawing board ford, leave it aaaaaght.
Admin Vista Posted September 23, 2012 Admin Report Posted September 23, 2012 You can't improve the Mk1 Tina Surely that's exactly what many owners try to do, with upgraded / modern engines, uprated brakes, suspension, exhaust etc etc? I don't mind the manufacturer having a go, in fact I actively encourage it. A modern saloon / coupe that's retro looking and steps out of the shadow of the standard euro box??
rallyesport04 Posted September 23, 2012 Report Posted September 23, 2012 I don't mind the manufacturer having a go, in fact I actively encourage it. A modern saloon / coupe that's retro looking and steps out of the shadow of the standard euro box?? 2nd that nearly all the cars on the road at the minute at a glance look the same i understand there are popular styles that sell in the thousands but few think out the box an the few that do think out the box have a price tag far higher than your everyday family folk can afford

I don't mind the manufacturer having a go, in fact I actively encourage it. A modern saloon / coupe that's retro looking and steps out of the shadow of the standard euro box?? Sorry I meant in looks. It's personal. I much prefer all cars from the 60s 70s as they are. The Mk1 Cortina, capri and escort being my personal favourites.And of course RWD.

SteveL Posted September 25, 2012 Report Posted September 25, 2012 It will make zero impact on my mk1 i would buy 1 ,I like it .But it will never be made It's just because of 50 years of cortina ford were asked what it may look like .
over_head_cam Posted September 25, 2012 Report Posted September 25, 2012 If I had the money I'd build one. And update an Escort too
Rookie Posted September 26, 2012 Report Posted September 26, 2012 Like it but given choice would have original tina all day long.
SebringRS Posted September 26, 2012 Report Posted September 26, 2012 If I had the money I'd build one. And update an Escort too Update the mk1? Too late, somone beat you too it Same problems with this one as the cortina though, they're good as they were
over_head_cam Posted September 26, 2012 Report Posted September 26, 2012 I'd actually build them Tom. Not exactly like those ones, but probably somewhere close
Lil Bill Posted September 26, 2012 Report Posted September 26, 2012 mmmm.... I'm not sure i wanna like them but i just dont't haha
Rookie Posted September 26, 2012 Report Posted September 26, 2012 Escorts quite nice but again wouldn't swop it for my mk1. Maybe i'm in a timewarp but like the mini ,beetle etc i prefer the originals,Old skool everything !!.
