1984 Ford Granada LX review from UK and Ireland
"A large, tough, comfortable cruiser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Central locking broke at 218,000 miles.
Power assisted steering rack broke at 219,000 miles.
Started to get a little rust around the windscreen and rear window.
General comments?
Very strong engine and body.
Quite fast for a big old car.
Quite thirsty.
Some minor faults, but expected with a car this age that's covered so many miles.
Very comfortable and extremely refined, a good cruiser.
Handling is safe, but not particularly sporting.
