1984 FORD GRANADA GHIA 2.8 automatic saloon, glacier blue metallic 122,940 miles A 80 KDU Purchased by current owner in August 1999. The previous owner, who was also a member of the Granada Enthusiast's Club, owned the car for 14 years. The car was owned for the first year by a company director. It is still a lovely vehicle. The original Owner's Handbook is with the car together with the original Service Record up to 36,000 miles in 1987. Current owner has a file of receipts and of work carried out since then. BODYWORK: The insides of all 4 doors are affected by no more than surface rust, having been covered with Waxoyl for many years. There is no sign of rust on the outside of the doors. There is no sign of rust on all four wings. The bonnet and boot-lid show no sign of rust either inside or outside. The roof , the sliding portion and the operating mechanism are rust free. There is some rusting at the bottom corner of the windscreen (although this is not apparent from the outside since it is hidden by the windscreen rubber) and also slight evidence of rusting where the electronic ignition power pack is mounted in the engine compartment. The 'A' and 'B' posts and also the sills appear to be unaffected by rust. The underside of the car appears to be unaffected by rust. REAR AXLE: The differential is quiet with no apparent backlash and all C.V. joints are quiet. GEARBOX: The gearbox performs quietly, the fluid is a healthy shade of red and there no leaks. The front and rear gearbox seals were replaced in 1984 together with the flywheel starter ring gear. ENGINE: The engine starts easily and runs quietly. It uses some oil but shows good oil pressure when hot and does not smoke. ELECTRICS: The window motor for the rear nearside door has been refurbished and needs to be reinstalled. The central locking solenoid in that door is not reliable but apart from that, everything works. The panel of warning lights above the windscreen behaves correctly. All dials and switches, apart from the door operated switches for the rear electric windows, operate correctly. Those windows may be operated by the switches on the central console. INTERIOR: The interior trim, roof lining, seats, carpets including the carpet in the boot are in excellent condition with no rips, tears, undone stitches or marks. This has obviously been a non-smoker's car. GENERAL: All solid brake pipes and also the rear suspension springs were replaced in 1995. The rear springs still have the original black jappaned finish. The rear wheel brake cylinders were replaced in 1999. A new steering rack was fitted in 1995. All 5 alloy road wheels and tyres are in good condition. The front brake pads and discs and the rear brake shoes are in good condition. WORK CARRIED OUT IM MY OWNERSHIP: New water pump New radiator New temperature sender New rear dampers New exhaust tail pipe and rear silencer New petrol tank support straps I have also sprayed Waxoyl and Supertrol sprayed into cavities and over the underside. I believe the car to be a very fine example and it comes with an MOT till July and is taxed until the 30th September 2002. Offers around �999 are invited.
