Many years ago I used to watch and enjoy Bathurst, all makes and models of cars used to compete. Then the Mazdas, Nissans and other manufacturers were whooping the local cars so they started making changes to the rules to stop numerous cars competing. Basically just leaving Holden or Ford. Gee, wonder who will win, one or the other. Me and a lot of my friends don't follow any more due to this.
So will Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe fans. I've still got a soft spot for a Ford Prefect
or Ford Zephyr 6cyl like a lot of Kiwis too.
As a kid we only had the humdrum 1959 Ford Consul 4cyl.
At college a few of us pooled our cash and had a Mk11 Cortina.
My own first car was 1973 XA Ford Falcon 3sp Auto
Then an 1980 Orange XD Ford Falcon 5spd with 14" Dragway mags.
