At first there was no EU-market back then (even no EU, just EC), plus the fact, that the Cortina MkIII as LHD was sold only in some single countries as Austria and Czechoslovakia -both no EU/EC-members back then- but not everywhere in Europe. Definitely not in West Germany, in France IIRC neither. -- Last edit: 2013-01-11 19:14:29
I-Denev ◊ 2013-01-11 19:23	"Made for EU" due to the left-hand drive and this difference with the original model is not contestable.
Ingo ◊ 2013-01-11 19:28	It is - see my comment a) no EU back than b) no EC-countries back then, where it was officially sold So "made for LHD-countries" would be correct (but the don't have that). "Made for EU" is totally wrong.
I-Denev ◊ 2013-01-11 22:52	There were no western vehicles destined to be exported to Bulgaria. It was not a market like in countries in western Europe. People who owned these cars were if "important persons", if persons who had bought a car abroad. There are some other ways to own a western car, but not officially.
Ingo ◊ 2013-01-11 23:50	@I-Denev: I know. Annother topic, I'm interested in, is "Western cars in the DDR". Except the USSR the DDR had the most restrictions about the import of Western cars. In all other COMECON-countries, also Bulgaria, appreared much more Western cars than there. btw.: recently someone has digged out new informations (well not really new, but new for me): /vehicle.php?id=408379
