1982 Ford Granada 2.8 GL Automatic
Classic and Sports Ltd are delighted to offer this exceptionally original Ford Granada 2.8 GL Automatic, first registered in 1982 and presented in outstanding, well-preserved condition throughout.
This is a particularly interesting example, being registered on a Y suffix registration whilst still being the original Series 2 Pre faceliftGranada. By 1982, the facelifted Series 2 model had been introduced, making this one of the last Series 2 pre facelift Granadas to be registered in the UK.
Having covered just 65,000 miles from new and remaining with the same owner for over 25 years, this Granada has clearly led a cherished life. It has spent many years in dry storage, helping to preserve the remarkable condition in which it is presented today.
Powered by Ford’s renowned 2.8-litre Cologne V6 and coupled to an automatic gearbox, the car starts readily, drives extremely well and retains the smooth, refined character that made the Granada one of Britain’s most respected executive cars.
The history file is extensive and supports both the mileage and long-term ownership. In addition, the sale includes a quantity of genuine New Old Stock (NOS) and spare parts acquired by the owner over the years, all of which will accompany the vehicle.
Prior to sale, the Granada will be supplied with a fresh MOT, with any advisory items attended to, ensuring it is ready to be enjoyed by its next owner.
We are pleased to be offering this vehicle on behalf of its long-term owner. Original, unmodified Granadas have become increasingly difficult to find, particularly in 2.8 GL specification, and examples with this level of originality, provenance and condition are now exceptionally scarce.
For enthusiasts looking for a genuine, highly original Ford Granada that has been carefully preserved rather than restored, this is a rare opportunity. Cars such as this seldom come to market, especially with low mileage, long-term ownership and such an honest, unspoilt presentation.
Supplied with an excellent history file, a quantity of genuine New Old Stock and spare parts, and a fresh MOT, this is undoubtedly one of the most original Ford Granada 2.8 GLs currently available
Please note the vehicle will be presented for MOT prior to sale and any advisories from the last MOT will be attended too The focus will be on getting a advisory free MOT
