EQUIPMENT

Dealer options; Genuine Ford headlamp protectors, tailored colour coded Ford carpet mats.
EXTERIOR
This exceptional and totally original Ford Granada wears the iconic Ghia badge, Ford’s signature of luxury and comfort. Finished in factory optional Satin Gold Metallic, (Code N8), this executive car boasts factory paint credentials rarely seen. The paintwork has a near flawless uniform finish to all arrow-straight factory panels with only a few miniscule chips to the bonnet and the bumpers and trims are perfect. The original glass is etched with the registration and all lights are as new including the headlamps still wearing genuine protectors for which even the original Ford box has been kept! Originality seekers will be pleased to see supplying dealer number plates and rear screen sticker all present and correct. A very rare find in such incredible untouched condition.
INTERIOR
The Ghia specification Astral trim in Mace colour scheme, (Code MG), is in outstanding condition throughout. The huge armchair like seats are in pristine condition and all matching door cards, carpets and headlining are as new. The original genuine Ford over mats remain fitted. The fascia is perfect with no cracks or damage whatsoever and the steering wheel and all touch points show a total lack of wear. All switchgear is functional and the original model 2007 stereo with separate power amplifier remains fitted and fully operational. The spotless boot area has immaculate carpeting and parcel shelf, an undamaged circular ply-board wheel cover and all factory build stickers are intact. Truly reminiscent of a 1990 showroom Granada!
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The 2.0 DOHC EFi engine develops 123bhp at 5500rpm and 174Nm of torque at 2500rpm, achieving a top speed of 119mph and 0-60mph in 11.8 seconds. Remaining in standard specification, the engine bay is spotless and displays factory plates, stickers and original inner wings with Ford emblem and date stamps clearly visible. The factory optional 4-speed automatic transmission operates perfectly.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The original 14” X 6” steel wheels wear the correct genuine trims in unmarked condition. Brand new premium brand Uniroyal 185/70 R14 tyres have just been fitted and the spare wheel has the original Uniroyal Rallye tyre still fitted! The electronically controlled Anti-Lock Braking system with power assistance bring the car up to a steady, straight and assured halt.
HISTORY FILE
Supplied new by Ford Main Dealer, Lookers of Kidderminster, and registered new on 24th January 1990. The vehicle was registered new to Lookers Planned Motoring as a management car in the supplying dealership network. In April 1992 the car was sold to the first and only private keeper who has owned it ever since. A genuine 35,968 miles has been covered from new and the car displays absolute breathtaking originality throughout, a real credit to the long-term owner. The car was always garaged and it sat alongside the owners original Volvo 145 also virtually owned from new! In 2008 the car was placed into long term dry storage owing to the owner ceasing driving and has been recently brought out whereby it still wore its factory fitted Uniroyal tyres. A complete recommission has been carried out to all mechanicals, fluids, brakes and fuel system so the car is now ready to enjoy on the ever popular retro car scene!
HPI Clear.

Absolutely stunning. I had 2. My 1st was a 2.0 LX and loved it. The inside was a great space to be in and had some nice features. My work colleague was selling his, a 2.9i Scorpio and we bought that....wow, leather, 4 electric windows, heated seats etc....we went from council spec to 5 star in moments. Always had a soft spot for these....its a pity its successor wasn't as nice looking.

The previous Granada was just a Cortina on steroids. This was the first time the Granada was a proper 'luxury' car. I remember how quiet and smooth it was. Like a jag.

My step dad had one of these in his show room back in the day - but it was specced out to hell. Under the scorpio name, leather all around lecky everything, the stereo had a 7 bandequalilizer and speakers were really weird and angled oddly. It was a monster on fuel (cant remember engine size) - and the colour was a really deep blue. Never forget it. One of my favourites he had in his show room.

This series of Granada was one of the most beautiful cars ever. Big beautiful luxury cruiser with style. Controversial when introduced as it was such a departure from the model it replaced. But they nailed it. It's horrific looking successor however really sunk Ford in the top of the range car market from which it never recovered. Ford is all SUVs now. Pity these glory days of motoring have gone.

Great stereo! In terms of space, comfort and refinement, I would say that this Granada would be superior to many new cars that are ten times its price. Officially, the facelifted front-end mk3 was on sale from February 1990, so this must be the earliest facelift mk3 in existence, as well as being in a very rare colour. When I was in my early-teens, I was very fond of a neighbour's then-new Diamond White Granada 2.0 GL 4dr saloon (H395HFJ). I washed it for them every fortnight and helped them keep it nice for as long as possible. It was such a lovely looking car for the seven years they had owned it. However its last MOT was in 2009 with a mileage that stayed stuck on 172,000 since 2007, so it clearly did very well for its subsequent owners. It may even have ended up being a 2009 Scrappage Scheme victim, thinking about it.

Really, very nice. A roomy, comfy and very modern car, with the best auto box and in this one, one of the best 4 cylinder engines on the market at that time. I just feel that Ford should have put some real wood on the doors too, this being a Ghia. It was one of the things that set Ford apart from competitors, sadly the Ghia got watered down over the years.
