Do you remember your first Ford?

Did you dream of driving like the Professionals or the Sweeney?

Were family holidays spent navigating the countryside in a Ford Cortina?

Testimony Films (makers of Veterans - BBC1, Ground Zero - Channel 4, Britain's Love Story - ITV1) is making a documentary for BBC celebrating the cult classic British Ford cars.

From the Anglia and the Capri to the Zodiac and the Zephyr, Ford brought the American dream to the UK changing the way we drove.

Their appeal was universal - rebel teenagers relished their rock and roll style, families adored the spacious interiors for holidays on the open road, Ford even designed a special model for the police force. They became the quintessential cars for every generation.

We would love to hear how your Ford car changed your life; perhaps you have memories of one particular journey, maybe you found romance on the road or maybe you even still have your first car. If you, your partner or your family owned a Ford car in the 50s 60s 70s or 80s and have interesting stories to tell, photographs or home movies of you and your car during these decades, then please contact Lizi Cosslett or Pete Vance on 0117 925 8589, e-mail lizi.cosslett@testimonyfilms.com or write to Ford Appeal, 12 Great George Street, Bristol, BS1 5RH.
