1991 Ford Granada Scorpio review from UK and Ireland
"Unbelievable bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Auto gearbox oil seal leak.
Front suspension bushes breaking up.
General comments?
A truly fantastic motorway cruiser with superb V6 power. The aircon in the 2.9 is much more capable than in the smaller engined cars and by 1991 Ford had got to grips with most (but not quite all) of the problems. Petrol is on the heavy side but the reliability and ridiculous cheapness of spares (compared to BMW, Merc. or Jag) helps the matter of running costs considerably.
If you want a cheap, mega milemuncher and you want 21st century luxury along with it, this is the car!
