Another brand new car with 10.900 KMS!

By 1972 Ford had established its reputation in Europe for building large, comfortable saloons aimed at the growing executive market segment and so it launched a new range to replace the ageing Zephyr/Zodiac Mk IV. The new range discarded the previous Zephyr/Zodiac model names in favour of Consul (for the 4 cylinder and base models) and Granada (for the 6 cylinder cars). The Consul came with a choice of either V4 (later cars used the straight four "Pinto" unit), or the "Essex" V6 engine, automatic transmission was also available. The Granada used the V6 engine in either 2.5 or 3.0 litre form and usually came with a better trim and equipment. Bodywork was obviously entirely new and buyers could choose between 4 door saloon, estate or even a special Ghia coupe version. Ford also put the German Cologne V-engines in the Granadas. Production lasted until the arrival of the Granada Mk II in 1977, by then the Granada had established itself as a top selling model in the European large car sector.

The second generation Granada arrived in 1977, the Mk II. The new Granada had revised styling which looked very "Germanic" and upmarket. As before with the Mk I, both saloon and estate versions were available, along with a comprehensive choice of Petrol and Diesel engines. A 2.8 injection version with spoilers and matt black trim added some sporting flair to the range which included L, LX (on later cars), GL, Ghia and a luxury Ghia X model. A special heavy duty "Taxi" model was also offered and proved popular with private hire firms. The Mk II range sold well until it was replaced in 1986 by the Granada Mk III (in Europe known as the Ford Scorpio).

This car has originally been sold in Germany. The car is completely original. The car has never been resprayed and has its original interior. Engine is the original well-known Cologne V6 engine. Only 10.900 KMs driven! This car is just as new.
