"North American roads don't really have corners..." ????? LOL really enjoying being a part of the 2nd 'world car' from Ford....(think the Escort might have been the 1st, not sure). Now let me go find one of the 2 or 3 corners we have in the US.... :cheers:

Glad to see Mustangs in Africa, welcome!

I'm betting British Top gear was the source for the "American roads don't have corners" tidbit. They think all our cars handle like a 77 Caddie.

The Cortina was one of the many Ford products not sold in the US. I think it was built by Ford UK. There were quite a few like this Sierra's (some made it to the US as the Mekur XR4ti), Mondeos (these crossed over with the Contour briefly), Cosworth and RS Escorts, etc.

Doesn't surprise me. Ford owned Mazda during the production of the Protege5. Must be using the same marketing firm the last 13 years!
