This is a beautiful example of a Ford Escort mark 1, photographed in Copenhagen, Denmark. Despite the 'GB' sticker, and the United Kingdom numberplate, this car is a left hand drive, so manufactured in Genk, Belgium. It's certainly been around! Several different engine sizes were available, 1100cc and 1300cc being the most common, but a 940cc equipped vehicle (as is the case here) was produced primarily for the French and Italian markets. The mark 1 Escort was available from 1968 - this early example was first registered in January 1970.
