An unforgettable British motoring icon, as well as something that looks like it stole its rear light cluster from on old Rover. 

I'm being told it did in fact use old Rover rear light clusters...

To be fair, at the time it was built, they were new Rover lights!

Nice!

Would, however this is the ford cortina I named myself after. Not this exact one but an identical one my dad had when I was a kid.

Ouch! I bet someone's quite upset about that, looks quite clean. MOT'd up to May this year.

They put a new engine the week before, called it 'finished' then this happened. 

Ouch indeed.

Getting increasingly thin on the ground. When was the last time you saw one on the road? From the days when Audis were bought by sensible people and looked neat and clean...

Not sure if this counts but while walking the dog today I noticed something remarkable about the latest Insignia "4 door coupe":

That moment when you realise it shares the same odd rear passenger window layout as the Carlton:
