Okwakudala kwaseBrithani okubili okuthengekayo
Uma uphupha ngeFord yakudala futhi ungafuni ukuchitha imali eningi, cabanga nge-Mark II Cortina.
Uma ufuna izimoto zaseBrithani zakudala ngentengo egculisayo, ungabheki kude kuneVauxhall, ikakhulukazi amamodeli e-"PA" e-Detroit-inspired "PA" asekupheleni kweminyaka yama-50s kanye nasekuqaleni kwawo-60s kanye neFord Cortina Mark II yamaphakathi nawo-XNUMXs.
Uma kuqhathaniswa ne-Holden ne-Falcon yenkathi efanayo, i-Vauxhall yayihamba phambili ngokunethezeka, imishini namandla. Nabo bebehamba phambili ngesitayela. Ungalenzi iphutha, lezi zimoto ziyagqama. Njengoba inamafasitela angaphambili nangemuva agingqike kakhulu nezimpiko zomsila ezikhuphuka ngaphezu kwabagadi bangemuva, i-PA Vauxhall yayihambisana nemibono yesitayela yaseMelika yangaleso sikhathi.
Kwakukhona amamodeli amabili kulayini athengiswa ngabathengisi be-Holden: i-base Velox kanye ne-Cresta emakethe kakhulu. Nakuba i-Velox yenza ngezihlalo ze-vinyl nomata berabha ephansi, i-Cresta inikeze amakhasimende ithuba lokukhetha izihlalo zangempela zesikhumba noma zenayiloni ezihlanganiswe nokhaphethi kanye nokunquma okukhazimulayo.
Izinguqulo zangaphambi kuka-1960 zazinamafasitela angemuva aneziqephu ezintathu, asetshenziswa nasezimotweni zika-1957 Oldsmobile kanye neBuick. Ziphuma nenjini engu-2.2 litre six-cylinder no-gearbox ohambisana ngokugcwele namagiya amathathu. Izimoto ezenziwe ngemuva kuka-1960 zinenjini engu-2.6 litre.
Idonsa ngamagiya amathathu ashintshwayo ibisezingeni. Okubenze baheha emakethe yakuleli ama-Hydramatic transmission options nama-power front disc brakes. Ngamafuphi, iVelox neCresta bangene endaweni yokumaketha ngaphezu kweHolden Special kwaze kwakhululwa uNdunankulu ngo-1962.
Izingxenye zalezi zimoto kulula ukuzithola, ikakhulukazi ezivela e-UK naseNew Zealand lapho kukhona amawebhusayithi nabathengisi bezingxenye abazinikele kumamodeli e-PA. Amanani ayahlukahluka kuye ngesimo sezimoto, kodwa akekho okufanele akhokhe ngaphezu kuka-$10,000 ngeyodwa, futhi izibonelo ezinengqondo zingatholakala cishe ngama-$5,000.
Nokho, lapho intengo iphansi, maningi amathuba okuba nokugqwala. Izimoto ze-PA Vauxhall zinezindawo eziningi zokungena kanye nemikhrani lapho kungena khona amanzi nokungcola. Khonamanjalo, uma ufuna iFord yakudala futhi ungafuni ukuchitha imali enkulu, cabanga ngoMark II Cortina. Ukuzalwa kwesibili kweCortina ethandwayo kwakhululwa e-Australia ngo-1967 futhi kwakhiqizwa kwaze kwaba ngu-1972.
Lezi zimoto ezingama-four cylinder zidlondlobala ngenxa yokuthi zakhiwe kahle, izingxenye zayo ziyindathane kanti nezindleko zokuyithenga nokuba nazo zifinyeleleka kulabo abafuna ukungena endaweni yezimoto zakudala ngaphandle kokuchitha imali eningi.
Cishe u-$3,000 uthola i-Cortina 440 ephezulu (yiminyango emine). I-240 enezicabha ezimbili ihamba ngemali efanayo. Izimoto ezidinga ukugqwala okuncane nokukhanda upende zingatholakala cishe nge-$1,500. I-Hunter British Ford Group ingelinye lamaqembu amaningi akhulayo asebenzisana neCortinas nezinye izimoto zakwaFord ezakhiwe eBrithani.
