Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
Answer:

Basically, the Orion is an Escort with a boot. Production was between September 1983 and September 1993. Assembly was via Halewood, United Kingdom.

The Ford Sierra was assembled in England: Dagenham, and was in production between 1982 and 1993. Who could not forget the Ford Capri Cosworth? This car today will cost you an arm and a leg!

What a fantastic little supermini! This little car was in production between June 1976 and July 2023. A great little car at an affordable price. The Ford Fiesta will be remembered by the XR2, a hot hatchback from the 1980s. This little car was powered by the 1.6-litre Kent Crossflow engine, producing 84 bhp, and had a top speed of 105 mph.

The Ford Granada was a little bit upmarket compared to others in the Ford range. Between 1972 and 1976, the car was in production at the Dagenham factory in England before switching to Germany.

This is one of the best Fords, in my opinion. Where would we have been without the Ford Capri? The Capri was in production between November 1968 and December 1986. The standout model for me was the 2.8 injection. A bit of a handful in the wet, but fantastic to drive. A special model was the Brooklands 280.

The Ford Anglia, my first car in the late 1960s. The Anglia saw various models between 1939 and 1967 before being replaced by the Ford Escort. Over 1.5 million cars were produced in its production run.

Between 1950 and 1972 you could have bought the Ford Zephyr. At home, it was assembled at Dagenham, United Kingdom, and Cork, Ireland. The Ford Zephyr was an executive car and was the largest passenger car in the Ford range at that time.

A more upmarket variant of the Ford Popular and Ford Anglia compact family cars, the Ford Prefect is a British car made by Ford UK from 1938 until 1961.

This particular car had a short life span of only seven years. The Ford Corsair was in production between 1963 and 1970. The Corsair was available as a two-door or four-door saloon and a two-door convertible/cabriolet. For extra room, the five-door estate car was also available.

The last on the list is the iconic Ford Popular, popularly known as the "Sit Up and Beg." The car was in production between 1953 and 1962. At the time, it was Britain's cheapest car. Over the years, the Pop has had a cult following with the hot rod scene and drag races. Many cars have been reworked with V8 engines and Jaguar backends instead of the standard 1172 cc side-valve I4 30 bhp engine.
