    Love it, but you can tell its an old boys car as its got wing mirrors on it instead of on the doors, although it has the remains of a mirror on the drivers door. I'd definitely swop it back to door mirrors if i brought it as it doesn't look right.

    Personally not convinced that car is only 18,000 miles .
    Ffs it’s had two different spare wheels on it .

    • @Mtandy-vm2pt
      @Mtandy-vm2pt 4 дні тому

      Maybe it's had a new Speedo at some point, as it's nearly a 50 year old car.: however In my opinion i don't feel that it's covered loads of miles though. Maybe more than what is shown on the clock though) I have come across genuine low mileage car's but as time goes by, there getting very very rare" to find. I'd love to know this car's history..

    • @levelcrossing150

      I had a different spare wheel in my Escort years ago, because someone nicked the alloy spare out of the boot and I bought a cheap steel one from a scrappy in case it happened again. 18,000 miles looks quite realistic to me, but you have to remember it's still nearly 50 years old.

      @@levelcrossing150 yes I agree with you) If 18000 isn't it's true mileage, I don't think it's covered loads and loads of miles) and yes nearly 50 years old.

      ​@@Mtandy-vm2pt As the lads say, I think Roman Bronze has to be clean and polished up to look it's best. I don't think it's the best colour for looking fresh, especially when it has a light covering of traffic grime on it. My fathers car which was identical to this one, was the same. A brighter, solid colour might have looked more like the mileage in question.

    Wow. Now that is a car. The 2000 Cortinas were nice but the Ghia was something else. 18,000 miles looks to be right.
    The colour is Roman bronze, and Hooleys were the Ford dealer in Worksop and another in Nottingham iiic.
