Musta been Limey Fords (Cortina, Anglia). Even USA Fords are the
pits.

I never had much mechanical problems with true British products
(Triumph, MGA, Austin). They were always jes a step up from a rock,
mechanically speaking. Jags were always a prob, what with their drool
overhead cam engines, but I never owned one of those.
