Description
The Ford Cortina Mk5 2.3 Ghia Titan Blue 1:43 Corgi Vanguards Diecast Model Car (VA15007) celebrates the final evolution of Ford’s hugely popular Cortina range, presented here in desirable 2.3 Ghia specification. Finished in striking Titan Blue with authentic Ghia trim detailing, this finely crafted model captures the cleaner, more modern styling of the Mk5 while retaining the familiar proportions and executive character that made the Cortina a mainstay of British roads in the early 1980s.
This expertly produced 1:43 scale model by Corgi Vanguards faithfully reproduces the distinctive Mk5 Cortina 2.3 Ghia profile, from the revised front end and crisp body lines to the vinyl roof detailing, brightwork, and period-correct badging. With sharp Titan Blue paint application, precise proportions, and carefully reproduced exterior and interior details, it offers collectors a highly displayable representation of one of Ford’s most recognisable later-generation Cortina saloons. As a limited edition release supplied with an individually numbered collector card, it delivers strong appeal for both Cortina specialists and dedicated Corgi Vanguards collectors.
