I don't want to come across as rude but the Consul GT is NHK 295M and was recently restored. The Cortina was NHK 296M, unless they swapped number plates in some episodes. I've not seen all of the episodes. Yoss, Shite Ron and rob88h 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the Cortina an XL? My Dad had a P reg 2.0XL and it had plain wheels with hub caps and didn’t have as much chrome trim as that one. Shite Ron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shite Ron Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Yes it is an XL, was your fathers car an estate? Ford didn’t put sports wheels on the estates for some reason, same with the Granada. The 1.6XL also had hubcaps and rim embellishes but most 2.0 XL saloons had sports wheels, maybe the sports wheels were optional but I didn’t think so, I will dig the brochure out tonight if I remember. Regarding the chrome trim, the grill would not have the two chrome strips on a later car and the bumper underriders would not be fitted. Ford changed the spec. every year, it is easy to tell the year a Cortina is made without looking at the number plate, they made a lot of changes.
