Description

The Ford Cortina Twin Cam Lotus was affectionately named ‘Lotus Cortina’ very soon after it was produced and launched by Colin Chapman in 1963, and the production ran until 1970. It was a collaboration between Ford and Lotus, with the Twin Cam Elan engine and it won the hearts and minds of people all over the world, but none so much as right here in Great Britain. The Group 5 Works Rally cars were incredibly successful in the hands of Graham Hill, Jackie Ickx, Sir John Whitmore. Every petrol headed person with a driving licence queued up to buy themselves a Ford Cortina, which is why so many of us so fondly remember the Cortina’s our fathers had when we were children. This stunning example was painstakingly restored 4 years ago by specialists and the detailing was very important to the customer with amazing attention to detail throughout. Engine and gearbox were also rebuilt and she is now fully run in and ready to enjoy or show. Theres a comprehensive history file inc the full restoration and all previous v5s inc the original “buff log book “along with original handbooks etc. On the road, there is a fluidity and balance only Lotus could engineer in the 1960s and she is a wonderful driving experience. Supplied fully inspected, serviced with 12 months warranty.
