1977 in Ormskirk town centre on market day. New Cortina, about four months old, and the clutch cable went. Car taken to Holland Motors in Southport from where I bought it.
Interestingly, the only cars that have ever let me down were my new Ford Cortinas. The first one that I had - 1971 Cortina 1600 GT - the gearbox went in Warrington town centre. Collected by Warrington Motors. !972 Cortina 2000 alternator packed up on the outskirts of Warrington.
