Looks to be a Cortina Mk3, but I didn’t know there was an E variant. |

E was renaming of GXL in 1974 facelift - rectangular lights instead of 4 roundies, new dashboard and other bits and pieces. |

Ford’s were a bit profligate with these higher range models, GXL, Ghia, E. Was there much difference? Was the Ghia later? I don’t recall any until the MkIV Cortina. |

Ghia was used on Cortinas from Mk4 as the range topper (so Mk3 2000E evolved into Mk4 Ghia). First Ghias were 1974+ Mk2 Escorts and Capris, as Ford began to standardise UK with product elsewhere in Europe. |
