WHY NOT TRY THESE DEALS TOO?

🏁 Win a 1966 Lotus Cortina Mk1 – A True British Racing Legend

Rare. Iconic. Motorsport royalty.

This is a 1966 Lotus Cortina Mk1 — one of the most important performance saloons ever built, and a car that perfectly captures the golden era of British motorsport.

Born from the collaboration between Ford and Lotus, the Lotus Cortina combined everyday usability with race-winning engineering. Lightweight, sharp-handling and thrilling to drive, it dominated circuits and rally stages throughout the 1960s — and remains one of the most sought-after classics of its era.
