The Cortina Mk 1V was a reskinned Mk111 and the work of Uwe Bahnsen. Our model represents a Ghia Estate version of 1979. Ghia had originally been an Italian Styling concern producing special coachwork for a variety of companies. After the company's purchase by Ford this once proud name was reduced to an up-market trim option. Cortina's Estate version was a spacious well-planned and popular vehicle combining generous load space and good looks in an era before today's 'lifestyle' station wagons which often end up with less loadspace than their hatchback equivalents.
