 Unloved 80's cars - RattleandSmoke
I was born in 1982 so I remember 80's cars fondly. I remember the excitement when my friends dad got a brand new company car, a 1990 G Seirra. We only had two 80's cars and they were both Ladas.

My late grandad only passed his test in the mid 70's so he had lots of the 80's classics. He had quite a few Montegos and a Y reg Meastro for about three weeks as a temp car. It was an HLS and would be worth a fair bit now.

I think in some ways the Cortina can be classed almost as 80's, in a way the Sierra can be a 90's cars. When I think back to the early 80's, it is images of Ford Cortinas that come to mind, even though they stopped making them in 1982.

I think the Montego is quite under rated today, it is seen as a badly built rust buckets, but they had some good engines and they were spacious and comfortable.
