NO RESERVE - 1990 Ford Granada Scorpio 2.9 Auto (1st Gen)

Highlights

  • Just 58,064 miles indicated
  • Will come with a fresh MOT
  • High specification
  • Fewer than 50 on the road
  • An honest example presented exactly as it is

The Appeal

Based on a stretched Sierra platform and intended to replace the Granada, the Scorpio (as it became known post 1991) was a high specification executive saloon, built to take the fight to BMW and Mercedes.
Offered with a wide range of engines and specifications, it never quite managed to topple the German hegemony, but it was certainly a success for Ford at the time.
This example comes with low indicated mileage, having been in the possession of its current owner since 2010. With a good maintenance record and high specification, this now very rare saloon is sure to be a hit amongst fans of the blue oval.

The History and Paperwork

  • First registered in August 1990
  • Four owners from new
  • Current owner since 2010
  • Currently SORN, but will be taxed and on the road prior to sale
  • Will come with a fresh MOT
  • 58,064 miles, verified by MOT record
  • Covered just over 12,000 miles in 2010, according to MOT history
  • Fewer than 50 on the road in the UK, according to ‘How Many Left’
  • Complete with a number of invoices and old MOT certificates, as well as a Haynes Workshop manual

The Interior

  • Black leather upholstery presents in excellent condition for the age, the seats looking plush and with no notable damage
  • Black carpets with complementary overmats run through the cabin, all of which look to be in good order
  • Electrically adjustable, heated front seats
  • Electric windows and door mirrors
  • The vendor tells us that the air-conditioning and sunroof do not operate at the moment
  • Front and rear demisters
  • Trip computer and cruise control
  • All of the trim and switchgear appears to be intact, complete and with only minor evidence of wear and tear
  • Huge boot area is trimmed with black carpet and contains a spare wheel and the tool roll

The Exterior

  • Flint Grey Metallic paintwork appears to be original and is in above average condition for the age, with some blemishes, marks and scratches, but nothing significant
  • Bodywork and trim is in reasonably good condition for the age, with some scuffs and evidence of minor corrosion to the rear arches, and a large scuff to the near-side of the front bumper
  • All of the glass and light lenses are intact and look in good order
  • Wind deflectors have been fitted to the front windows
  • A tow bar has been fitted
  • Underneath, there is fairly widespread surface corrosion to all drivetrain components
  • The sills look nice and solid, but have clearly been patched and welded at some point, there is also some evidence of welding to the floor pans
  • Original 15-inch alloy wheels look in good condition and are shod with tyres that appear to have reasonable tread levels
  • Numerous spare parts also available by separate negotiation
  • New Exhaust, New front section and New middle section. Original rear section is in good condition as shown by the MOT 

The Mechanics

  • 2,933cc ‘Cologne’ V6
  • 4-speed automatic transmission
  • Rear wheel drive and factory ABS
  • The engine bay looks tidy, with surface corrosion to the majority of components
  • We’re told by the vendor that the car drives well, with no smoke, leaks or significant mechanical issues
  • The front & mid sections of the exhaust have been replaced with new and the rear section is in very good order.

Summary

Increasingly rare on today’s roads, this low mileage, almost factory spec Granada Scorpio is quite the find. This is an honest example with a little work could soon be in superb condition, and is the kind of modern classic that would be welcomed with open arms at any car show.
