Mk1 on BBC

Sounds like a BIG mess

[FredTransit]

That cortina may be worth quite a bit due to its celebrity status but I dont think its actually in very good nick. on screen you can see the rear seat material is falling to pieces, things like window winder knobs missing, plus of course the fact that its idenity is confused. is it a 2000E or a GXL?
still having said that I wouldnt say no

That was the othere thing about the series the vehicle suppliers were slagged off about. The tina originally had GXL on the front and 2000E on the back! I think it was TopGear that originally made it public. I believe they orinally paid about £2000 for it, from a member of the Cortina Owner's Club in Sheffield.
