>> This was definitely a Cortina. From memory it had a split front bench seat.
I'm getting confused now. Either it's a bench OR it's split into two surely?
The Victor in Pug's link upthread has a floor change and two seats but seems to still have the T shape 'umbrella handle' set up for the handbrake below and left of the steering column. The convention of a pull up lever between the front seats was not then fully set.
Another oddity with Vauxhall cars, before the mandatory fitting of a steering lock, was the facility to set the ignition/starter switch for keyless operation. Once done it would function without the key being inserted; just turn the chrome, later plastic, knob and off you go.
