SERVICE HISTORY

• When I purchased the Cortina there was no service history bar some old mot certificates, The vehicle has recently had a service when the engine was rebuilt and won’t see many miles before she is sold.

I bought this car with great intentions as it was my mothers first car when she was 17, It has recently gone under extensive recommissioning work to make it in to the very useable classic you see today.
