I can't answer that question but I have one of my own for any Cortina afficianados.
I am looking around for a TC to have and use as a loved Sunday drive car. I don't have the funds or knowledge to start with a project and I am looking at automatic transmissions. I don't know whether to go 4 cylinder or 6 cylinders ? I have always been used to a more powerful car, actually I have never owned a 4, but with TC's can someone reccomend either way which tended to be better ?
