1993 Ford Granada Ghia X review from UK and Ireland
"A cheap BMW - with better gadgets!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust blowing on purchase.
Brake pads always wearing out.
Central locking goes haywire in the wet.
Rust on rear wheel arches.
Radio stopped working.
General comments?
This car is the bargain of the last decade. The Ghia, Ghia X and Scorpio models have all the gadgets your imagination could think up. Being a Ford lover this new car supports my view. Is comfortable, fast, big, looks good; what else do you want in a car? OK, so it may be a bit thirsty, but if your easy on the right foot the on board computer happily shows up 30- 35 mpg. The auto gear box is smooth and forgiving. The power steering is light and responsive and overall the car is a pleasure to dive, and the thought of knowing your car is most likely much bigger and has more gadgets than your mates' always gives some satisfaction.
