Nice pics there, plenty of variety. The blue Ford is a Consul isn't it? Not a Mk1 Granada. I remember my Dad looking at a very similar car at Marshgate Motors, Doncaster, around 1974 - but he ended up buying a Toyota Corona 2000 instead. :)

The 2nd pic down has a red Mistral in th eback-ground!

I had one almost identical, it had Escort flares and powered by a 302 Ford V8 and Celica 5-speed.

It was like a go-kart on steroids! :o
