Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.15) based on 281 votes
In an attempt to reduce my collection of cars. I almost want to list this Mk 5 Cortina 2. 0 GL badly so it dosent sell??? 
So here it is:
Only owned by me since March this year. V5c in my name showing 5 previous owners. Mot until 26th October 2016 and currently on sorn as kept garaged within my personal collection.  Enough previous Mot's in the portfolio to confirm the present milage of 79. 86 and the milage recorded at the last MOT was 79. 71. (that's 15 miles to save you doing the maths) 
Engine sounds perfect. absolutely no cam rattle or little puff of smoke on start up. (as some do) and all looks original and un-molested. Drive line all functions correctly with no concerns. Paintwork is a bit poor in places with a few bubbles up round the rear wheel arches as photographed in the listing.
The last (or current) MOT shows no advisories. four previous mot certificates in the folder showing the car as covering approximately 10. 00 miles since 2012.  Therefore. a usable classic with a sound driveline which could be overall cosmetically improved on how you see fit. It is the 2 litre version. Over head cam in my day but known as a pinto in todays world and will be on sale from the first bid in an attempt to reduce my collection. some of which is evident in the background of the photo's. Dont really want to trade due to the reason for sale and for any less than the first bid. she goes back in the garage. (hurrah !!). Cash on collection prefered etc etc.
Thanks for looking and please see some of my other items I may have listed.   
Additional Information:  Due to a lot of enquires about the condition of the car due to the short Mot. I took the car for a test today and she PASSED . therefore the Mot expiry is now 26th October 2017. (Mk5 Cortina 2. 0 litre GL with 13 MONTHS mot on sale from the first bid with no reserve !!!!!!!!). The Mot did note advisories on the corrosion on the two wheel arches as shown in the photo's and some on the lower sill. There was also a dim bulb on the rear number plate light which I have since rectified. This car drives very well with an excellent drive line and I would be confident over any distance home. Thanks for your interests.

I see you have a blue mk5 cortina up for sale whats the chances you still have this car as it is the same colour as one my partner is restoring and we have not got the paint code as the vin plate is lost cant get another vin plate until we have the paint code hope im not being cheeky asking if it is possible you have paint code or even name of colour thanks
