Facts about the model
Från våren 1964 började alltfler standarddelar införas. Först byttes växellådan till en Cortina GT-låda med sprängkåpan i gjutjärn och aluminiumdelarna i karossen byttes ut mot billigare plåt.
Sommaren 1965 ersattes Lotus avancerade bakvagn av en Cortina GT-axel med längsgående bladfjädrar. Några månader senare byttes växellådan igen, nu till en Corsair-låda.
Tillverkningen av Lotus Cortina Mk I uppgick till knappt 2 900 exemplar.
Denna Lotus Cortina består av komponenter från både 1964 och 1965 års modell bättre ämnade för rallybruk. Historiken innan 1995 känner vi inte till.
