1987 Ford Granada Scorpio Ghia review from UK and Ireland
"Comfortable and affordable luxury car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake cable snapped at 68,000 miles.
Sunroof motor failed at 70,000 miles.
Tyres wore very quickly.
General comments?
Only faults in the space of two years were a snapped brake cable, failed sunroof motor and quick wearing tyres.
Extremely comfortable and smooth to drive.
Expensive to run and repair.
Superb ride and strong handling.
Good value for money at £8,000 for a three year old luxury car.
Lost value dramatically and two years later was part-exchanged for £3,500.
