The Cortina MK3 Club has evolved after forming in 1992 as the Mark 3 Owners Club (MTOC). It’s aim has always been to promote an interest in the MK3 Cortina and to help with servicing, restoration as well as helping to locate spare parts.
We welcome all members with an interest in the cars whether owners or not, and whether their cars are concours winners, undergoing restorations, standard or modified.
Membership brings great benefits such as-
• Access to the members section of the Cortina MK3 Club website www.cortinamk3club.com with an interactive forum board, www.fordcortinaforum.com
• Links to suppliers and other clubs as well as an active advice, parts for sale and wanted section.
• Advice through the committee and other members on all aspects of ownership, modification and maintenance.
• Public liability insurance when exhibiting at shows under the club’s name.
• A free valuation facility for members cars for insurance or sale purposes.
• Assistance with DVLA matters such as tax exemption and proof of model.
• Discounted classic car insurance and discounted parts with key suppliers.
• The club’s magazine ‘Coke Bottles’ is produced four times a year. It contains forthcoming events, show reports, members articles, parts suppliers and cars/parts for sale as well as club merchandise. Notably it includes some parts that the club has had reproduced.
Since 2000 the club has staged its own annual gathering, this is the time of year when the club’s awards are presented but there is far more to it than trophies. It’s a great social occasion, a chance to get together with other members from all over the country and exchange stories and ideas. You do not even have to have a MK3 on the road. Just turn up and have a great time.
