Impressive collection there. Thanks, Oliver.
The first ??? is a Ford Cortina Mk I, I would think, probably 1960s? We Essex boys of a certain generation grew up with the Mk I Cortina. I recall the rather off-colour joke:
"How many Essex girls does it take to screw in a light bulb?"
"They don't screw in light bulbs; they screw in the back of Ford Cortinas!"
