Re: Vehicle prices 1974
Those were the days
I am not 100 % sure but remember that the price of petrol way back in
1972/1973 was roughly 10 cent (yes 10 cent) per liter. I frequently
requested the attendat to put in R1.00.That was not strange or a joke.

I won't forget, when I met my wife in 1969 I drove a 1958 Peugeot 403 and threw in 50 cent Sasol to get us around !! We still joke about itjohan wepener wrote:Those were the days I am not 100 % sure but remember that the price of petrol way back in

And where's the rest of that Scope? Those middle spread pages had the pictures that made you use your imagination, unlike today's magazines

But do not forget that the late sixties and early seventies saw the
appearance of very small mini skirts the young ladys started

"The Cortina XLE LDO was the forerunner to the Ghia range. It stood for Luxury Decor Option & had woodgrain finished dash & interior window sils. Further, it had plush pile carpeting & velour material seats & door panels. It also had larger front & rear bumper over riders & vinyl roof. It was only available in automatic..nice luxury car that had "Big 6" performance!"
