[@alexandertebbiche2292]

Now these are my type of cars. I love the shape of these classic Ford cars and seeing the inside of this car makes me imagine driving it everywhere with full pleasure!

[@KGFClassicCars]

Nice cars!

[@razor000999000]

loved these back in the day, had a 2.8 rust bucket in blue, thought I was the dogz @#££@. you every thought of popping the bonnet and showing engine bay on your vids

[@robertallen3441]

My father had a 2.0L in beige. Bought as an ex demonstrator from the local Ford dealer. Dead basic, but very comfortable and an excellent tow car. Upgraded to a mk 3 2.0 scorpio hatchback with manual gearbox and electric everything.

Thank you for your comment all our cars have a album of over 70 photos on our flickr page where you can see all areas of the car!

Lovely Granada ❤ I own a 2.0 L estate, its the most comfortable car I ever had. It's from 1982 with the Pinto 4 cilinder engine, the previous owner added a 5 speed gearbox wich gives it a good miles per gallon range😊 Mine is dove grey 🥰

[@KGFClassicCars]

Oh nice!

[@richardherbert9320]

I owned one! Luxury at a lesser price. Happy memories and very reliable!

[@KGFClassicCars]

Very nice!

[@bigsquatchsasfoot1964]

Wow that sure is clean ! Looks new , had a few in my days even 2.8 ghia x but my favourite was a standard estate model in pale green it was bomb proof I loved it 👍

[@KGFClassicCars]

Thank you for your comment!

[@CreRay]

Very nice car! My uncle used to own an early mk2 2.3L, he still praises that car today. In the village where I grew up, I used to see a late mk2 2.8 Injection Estate! Very rare car, never seen another example.

[@KGFClassicCars]

Thank you for sharing. These cars are very rare and special.

[@del-boysnostalgiatvads7416]

Had four of them back in the day great cars! 👌

[@buzzment1]

What a legend of a car...

[@KGFClassicCars]

Thank you Paddy, we agree!

[@rugbydazz2264]

I always saw them as a luxury car but that was literally a gear stick and steering wheel, lovely condition though.

[@KGFClassicCars]

Thank you for your comment!

[@69Phuket]

This will get noticed out on the road. Lovely, just Wow!

[@69Phuket]

All those dash blanks to remind you how poor you went! ;)

[@alexisdiesel]

The Granada mk2 inspired a line of ford cars in Brazil in the 1980s and 1990s. The car is called Ford Del Rey. search...

[@KGFClassicCars]

Thank you for your comment!

[@jaggass]

Its sad that most of these were used as taxi's and banger racing. Good to see a few escaped it.

[@KGFClassicCars]

Yes they are rare like you say many have been used on the track. Ford did actually make a special Granada for use as taxi's with special features and prices!

[@Anirossa]

I drive one as my first car, my dad has a Mk. 1 he has as a daily :)

[@lewis72]

but they did rust though, like nearly all '80s cars, and when you have a bill of £500 to fix a car that's not worth that when fixed, they get binned.

[@gerrygoodfellow5321]

ANOTHER TIME MACHINE! MUSEUM ,PIECES❤👍

[@KGFClassicCars]

Yes indeed!

[@hboorizza6439]

Looks modern inside for its age I have worked on an seen meny of these but never the basic 2.0l we had a 2.0l estate cream colour I like the 2.8 special with the white alloys an the recaro seats front an back spoilers mint an rare..

Yes, this is a basic car.

Are you sure the 2.0 litre only had 74Bhp. I thought the Ford Pinto 2.0 had around 100 BHP and the 1.6 pinto had around 75 BHP (90 BHP with twin choke carb).

[@KGFClassicCars]

Not sure, we will check

[@arthurdardalis]

The 2.0 was 100HP,

[@stevehillier7018]

Just think of Cowley from the professionals

[@nkt1]

Steve Hillier Nobody would dare give Cowley a poverty-spec model like this.

[@trevorshields7347]

This car looks fresh from the showroom. Would love to know the history of this car and how its in such superb condition

Wow 4 speed and no rev counter.... and what would have been In the 2 round blanks between the cigar lighter and the fan speed knob ?

This was a basic model!

[@aztimms]

Not blanks - oil pressure light & diesel glow plug light ( or high series oil guage & ammeter).

[@chrishart8548]

Cruise control and heated drivers seat😂

[@supremefantastic]

Amazing condition. I like the Ghia better though because of its looks (wheels, front and rear spoiler, extra lights and so on). upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/f3/1982_Ford_Granada_2.8_Ghia_X_(14338695644).jpg

[@JohnMcMahon.]

Yeah I've always loved the Mk2 Ghia but this 2.0L is in great shape for its age.

[@explorer806]

L for Luxury...steel wheels, 4 speed box, manual window winders, no FM or cassette...but lots of chrome and a ciggie lighter! The blanking plates between the cig. lighter and fan speed knob just rub it in that you have the povvy model...

thing has an analogue clock instead of a tachometer?

Yes its a base model no luxuries!

[@aztimms]

Relative luxury - base Fiesta Escort of the period didn't get a clock (or cigar lighter, passenger side mirror - internally adjustable, vanity mirror, folding rear armrest, front centre console with armrest, intermittent wipers - variable delay, instrument illumination dimmer, front & rear interior lights - 4 door operated and twin rear fog and reversing lights etc.)

Gutless wonder with a 2 litre 4 pot..

[@KGFClassicCars]

Yes the 2 litre was slightly under powered!

[@glpilpi6209]

KGF Classic Cars I didn't realise that Ford made such a sluggish 2.0 Pinto engine but apparently they did produce some detuned economy versions for various vehicles over the years . Most Capri , Sierra , Cortina 2.0 pintos were rated around 100BHP. As a base fleet model of the time fuel economy was the priority as fuel prices had increased in real terms considerably.

[@PaulabJohnson]

@@glpilpi6209 it was more to do with company car tax in the UK at the time.. anything over 2 litres was hammered so there were a lot of executive type cars with tiny engines to get the tax break

[@drlloyd131]

Sorry...But WHO in their right mind would buy a 2.0 L...KGF...Your valeting must be out this world 😂

[@KGFClassicCars]

The slightly under powered version but rare cars these days!

[@SANDSCORCHER]

I think I would as a daily 👍🏻 I used to have a 2.8i Ghia X and the fuel economy was beyond utterly atrocious
