That is a shit load of pov spec Anglias, and a very rare fleet only Cortina (with the painted metal grille). I wonder how high up the firm you had to be to get one of the Corsairs.

Or are they all hire cars, given the Jersey (?) plates and airport location? 

Yep they're hire cars for holiday types.

That still exists & is in Australia, fascinating story of it being a one off show car that should have been crushed but was accidentally sold .

Then ford tried to confiscate from the current owner 4 decades later & court told them to piss off.

Those badges on the grills look like a radar sensor that are added to cars these days. All be it that new ones are bit more "stealth".

We had one of those 50's Prefects in the 1960's - still had a side-valve engine, 3 speed gearbox, vacuum wipers - (they slowed down the faster you drove) and no heater fitted- regularly iced up inside in the winter. Ah those were the days.

Replacement was a Mini - that had a rotten sub-frame at 5 years old and failed it's MoT...

Yep, my Dad briefly had a Mk II Zodiac (acquired one year for driving down to South Africa on holiday) with the same setup, in rain as you pulled out to overtake and accelerated forward visibility went as the wipers ground to a halt!
