Gomselmash11 ◊ 2011-04-21 11:14	And the other Cortina its more newer, right?
coopey ◊ 2011-04-21 11:18	Yup, the other one was registered in December.
antp ◊ 2011-04-21 14:38	Only few months newer then... are both the same model-year?
Gomselmash11 ◊ 2011-04-21 18:08	Vehicle Details for registration number YHD214Y Make MAN Model Year of Manufacture 1982 Engine Size (cc) 11413 But probably a 1982 car?
Sandie ◊ 2011-04-21 18:50	As YHD 241V is a silver 1979 Cortina they probably played the old trick of altering one of the digits to make the car look newer. So the other car listed here: /vehicle_392637-Ford-Cortina-1979.html is also 1979 (though in the interests of accuracy 1980 MY. Probably same here due to this being a MKV.). It's just too much of a coincidence.
