Ford Cortina: 50 years ago today…

Ford are celebrating 50 years since the first Ford Cortina was launched and changed the car landscape forever. The Ford Cortina went on to sell an impressive 4.3 million during its twenty year life, eventually turning in to the Ford Sierra and then in to the Ford family car of today – the 2013 Ford Mondeo (which, interestingly, can be had with the 1.0 litre EcoBoost engine – smaller even than the 1200cc of that first Cortina). That first Cortina was the start of Ford’s dominance of the UK car market, leading to an unbroken run of 35 years as the best selling car brand with most of the Cortinas, almost 3 million of them, built at Dagenham – in the days Ford actually built cars here.

McLaren MP4-12C: Now it’s the performance photos & video

McLaren MP4-12C Performance We should probably call today ‘McLaren Day’, not Valentine’s Day. For today is the day we get every last morsel of detail on McLaren’s first new car in almost twenty years – the McLaren MP4-12C. Keen readers – and those not in Europe – will have seen we posted all the MP4-12C performance data at midnight last night – it was all embargoed until today.

Jaguar F-Type UK public debut

Jaguar are giving the new F-Type its first UK public outing at the Lord Mayor’s Show in November - driven by Jessica Ennis. But that’s about to change as Jaguar has decided to debut their new sports car at this year’s Lord Mayor’s Show in London on 10th November. But just to make sure there’s an added bit of kudos for the new F-Type as it drives along London’s City Streets, Jaguar has roped in Olympic golden girl Jessica Ennis to cast a bit of the residual fairy dust from this year’s summer of sport with a photocall before the show and Jess behind the wheel as the Lord Mayor’s procession takes to the streets.
