Other Info:

This single reached No.8 in the charts in Feb'84 on Springtime records. Produced by Clive Langer & Alan Winstanley, this is quite an amusing ditty whose lyrics seem to have no connection from one line to another! Presumably the new motor is a Ford, as the model is mentioned in the lyrics, all of which are repeated twice.

The text accompanying the car image reads:

Not for publication before September 26 1973. THE NEW CORTINA SALLOON. A new executive model joins the cortina range today. It is called the Cortina 2000E, and offers within its standard specification, a vinyl roof, sports road wheels, halogen headlamps, push button radio, new savannah cloth trim upholstery, wall-to-wall carpeting and genuine wood veneer for the instrument fascia panel and door capings.
