Why what?
V8 powa? :wacko::wacko::wacko:
Plenty of room for dead bodies in the back, eh? :wacko:

Apparently genuine :xosmi:
Muscle cars really aren't my thing.
That's understandable.
Isn't the Sierra (and the previous Cortina) classified as a large sedan there? :wacko:
Just curious......did the last Cortinas (just before the Sierra) you had there just have 4 cylinders? Or did they have 6's as well?

No wonder it's done a head gasket :lol
Spoiler warning:
No idea about Cortinas, don't really care for them. Although there are two in my area. Both Ghias, one's a from the 70s and the other is the last model before they stopped making them.
An ex-gf of mine had an early 80's Cortina (what you call a mk V) with a 4.1 ltr inline 6 and 4 spd manual box.
Went really hard for a stock car (it was completely unmolested).
I had some fun times :)
Looking at wiki, I think you guys had a 2.3 ltr V6 as the largest engine.

Only 4 speed gearbox? Really? :o
There probably wasn't anything strong enough at the time, and still cost effective for that car :shrug:
You could probably put a T5 in one if you wanted to I guess :thot:
Or do a Supra 5 spd conversion (toyota conversion kits aren't difficult to get here).
Some of those Corties are getting around with engineered V8's.
I must say this 70s Cortina that's parked up on someone's drive has never moved from their drive. It's been there for a few years now...
It's probably a fucking wreck under the bonnet/underneath. :( It looks pretty nice, yellow paint with a black roof. Looks like a muscle car/Capri. :P

3.3 ltr.
3 spd manual on the floor (that's what they were back then).
:disgust:

Q: Your description says that the car has 3 speed gearbox but in the other description it says it had a 4 speed.Can you clarify please.Thanks.
A: Hi Willow, I couldn't find an identical one in the ebay file however I can assure you it is a 1972 3 Speed manual with the 200CI (3.3 Litre) engine.

Ah, the new Pioneer SATA burner isn't making coaster. Thank God for that! My laptop coastered about 18/25 of the last 25 pack of TDK DVD+R I bought. :(
