love that! But does your car also have the blue full beam indicator bulb on the dash separate to the speedo? All the Cortina GT speedo's have integral full beam indicators build in. I believe that even the mk 1 Lotus Cortinas were rated to 140 mph so perhaps the Vixen speedo is even rarer than a chickens dentures!

I know there will be plenty of people on here who will say 'does it matter'?
Good point, yes there's the working beam indicator on the dash. Implying the Cortina speedo isn't original after all... Shucks.
