The page says that that accident with the 700 is the reason Jacky Icks became a Ford driver the same day. The Ford boss phoned him up after the accident and told him that it never would have happened had he been driving a Cortina. So Icks replied with "Well, what are you waiting for, get me one!".
It also says that the accident was caught on film and was Icks' first hillclimb.
Interesting stuff!
