The 90 is real - looks line an Uno back end, however the 164 is photoshopped.

Apparently it's real too.. murican DIY with bits off a spare Taurus.. Which is why it looks st, unlike all the lovely factory prototypes

I always thought this was cool



Has to be a photoshop

Cortina Estate, my father squeezed the 10 of us into his 1600L every year for our annual trip to Scarborough.

Dad driving, mother in the passenger seat, my youngest brother in her arms, sister the passenger footwell, 4 on the back seat and 2 of us in the boot with the picnic & beach stuff wedged around us to stop us sliding around.

We were a classy bunch!

Wasn't that built as a tyre testing rig for airliner tyres or something?

Because the Renault safrane underneath was an un-saleable hunk of st?
