I thought the Lotus Cortina was more a Touring car than a rally car, i guess it was multiskilled! |

LHD, and registration is probably an age-related DVLA issue for a 1997 import, though probably a 1966 car. Modern classic car racing/retro rally photo, not period event. |

Currently for sale - £47,000 - http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C283113 - "In 1994/5 3 totally original road going Mk1 Lotus Cortinas were imported from California by David Sutton and then prepared for FIA rallying at his workshops and this is one of them". Extensive retro-rally use in UK and Europe since then. US sales of Cortina Lotuses were limited to 168 Mk1 examples and only in 1965/6 - apparently they all had full-width front bumpers. The other David Sutton repatriated LCs included PRP 74D which has been modelled by MotorPro as a Code 3 conversion of the old Corgi Classics model Link to "www.swapmeetmodels.co.uk" . The third one was PRP 87D - picture in http://lotuscortina.7.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?p=21917&highlight=#21917 . -- Last edit: 2012-08-02 03:28:59 |
