Ford will celebrate 50 years since the launch o the Mark I Cortina at this year’s Goodwood Revival show. This was their best selling car in Britain for 10 of the 20 years it was sold, and a total of 2.8 million of them were bought by British customers alone.
A white and green 1965 Lotus Cortina will star on the Ford stand in the RAC Earls Court exhibition alongside a 1953 Ford Prefect. The Cortina line-up at Revival also includes a Crayford Convertible, Goodwood’s ‘Glamcabs’, and a unique design project, the Saxon coupe.

Other noteworthy Fords at the Goodwood Revival will include two GT40s, a 1969 road-going GT40 MK III and a 1964 GT40 MK I race car bodied in the style of the 1966 Le Mans race winner.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
