Ford Cortina and Escort Mk I and Mk II models brought family motoring to millions of people from the early 1960s. These Fords were straightforward, easy to drive and simple to maintain, and their popularity has been sustained largely because of this. Their basic simplicity of design and inherent ruggedness means that they are ideal candidates for DIY restoration. The booming owners's club movement and the continuing availability of spare parts ensures that these cars will have a strong following for many years to come.
During the 1960s, the automobile finally secured its position as an indispensable component of daily life in Britain. Car ownership more than doubled from approximately one car for every 10 people in 1960 to one car for every 4.8 people by 1970. Consumers no longer asked "Do we need a car?" but "What car shall we have?" This well-illustrated history analyzes how both domestic car manufacturers and importers advertised their products in this growing market, identifying trends and themes. Over 180 advertisement illustrations are included.
THE CARS, THE RACES, THE RIVALRIES, THE WOMEN ... WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF SAREL VAN DER MERWE, SOUTH AFRICA’S GREATEST RACING DRIVER. IT’S TIME TO FASTEN YOUR SEATBELT FOR THE RIDE OF YOUR LIFE ... Sarel van der Merwe is a certified, card-carrying legend – the Clint Eastwood of South African motor sport. Not only is Sarel the most gifted driver ever to come out of this country, winning both off-road and on the track, but he’s been utterly uncompromising in his approach. Since he and his alter ego, SuperVan, have been racing, Sarel has been super-competitive, scratching paint off racing cars from Kyalami to Le Mans. And he’s certainly pissed some people off. In this no-holds-barred story of his life, Sarel reveals the skinny behind all his big rivalries, his run-ins with team owners and his frequent disagreements with motor-sport authorities. Along with a behind-the-scenes look at the world’s legendary motor races, he rates the greatest – and worst – cars he ever drove, remembers some of the colourful characters that featured in his long career, and explains exactly why motor sport in South Africa is no longer what it used to be. And then, of course, there were the women?... ‘Sex is like motor sport,’ Sarel says. Though you’ll have to read the book to find out why.

In 1968, British Leyland brought together many of Britain's motor manufacturers, with the intention of creating a robust unified group that could equal the strength of the big European conglomerates. But this was not to be. There have been many books about the politics and the business activities of British Leyland, but British Leyland - The Cars, 1968-1986 looks exclusively at the cars that came from the company, both the models it inherited and those it created. The eighteen years of the corporation's existence saw a confusing multitude of different car types, but this book resolves these confusions, clarifying who built what, and when. The book takes 1986 as its cut-off point because this was the year that the old British Leyland ceased to exist and what was left of the car and light commercial business was renamed the Rover Group. The book includes: Production histories and technical specifications of every major model; The special overseas models; Appendices on engines, code names, and factories; Buying guidance on the models built in Britain. This is the most comprehensive book so far to focus on the cars from British Leyland between 1968-1986 and it provides an overview of each model's production history, together with essential specification details. It is profusely illustrated with 178 colour and 63 b&w photographs.
