Description
Here we have a rather stunning example of a former British institution, the MK3 Ford Granada in metallic green.
This 1993 model came right at the end of production and is a testament to its previous owners with just 85, 000 genuine miles from new with masses of history.
The specification is very impressive for a car from the early 1990s and is as follows:
The elusive top spec ‘Scorpio’ model!
Heated, Electrically adjustable Seats
Air Conditioning
Cruise Control
Lovely Digital Trip Computer (working with mpg, range, etc)
Electric Sunshine Roof - works perfectly
Electrically adjustable Mirrors
Heated Front Windscreen
10 (!) Disc Ford CD Autochanger
Cassette Deck with Dolby B and C Noise Reduction
Original Cassette Tape holder
Alloy Wheels
Drivers Airbag
Electric Windows all round
Abs (I believe the Granada was the first car to have this standard across the range)
Being a facelift car, it is benefits from a plethora of upgrades, no more prominent than the fitment of the 2. 0 Litre DOHC engine please do not confuse this with earlier Pinto cars. These twin cam engines are extremely smooth and offer good fuel economy when compared with the thirsty Cologne V6.
This engine is paired with the 4 speed A4LD automatic which shifts perfectly and is very well suited to the twin cam engine, offering smooth progress and a surprising turn of speed if required.
Words do not really do this car justice. We have owned this car twice now and the condition is very impressive for a 30 year old Ford. It has only covered 5000 miles in the past decade and has always been kept in a heated garage, being used strictly for special occasions. It comes with 3 keys - there is an entire file of history and receipts; we spent approximately £600 last year alone recommissioning the car. The underneath and sills (the Achilles heel of Granadas) have been checked meticulously and are rot free, as are the wheel arches which are in fantastic condition.
You do not need to spend a penny on this car - just use and enjoy. It will take you anywhere in the country in comfort and with a sense of occasion. If we had the space, this one would be a keeper for us as we haven’t seen one this good for many years.
Please do come and see the car if you are interested. We would love to share it with you. Please call Paul on the details below.
