But there's also a british Cortina spotted in this movie, and given how big the Ford of UK presence was in Greece during the 1960s ( at least in 1963 , Ford (Consul) Cortina was the most popular car there , which, thanks to that, dramatically increased the sales of british Ford's in Greece ), the logic would follow that other british Ford's were pretty popular there later on, but I guess since Ford Werke was ALSO sold in Greece, I've no way of telling if it's a british-built or a german-built one.
