Ford Granada/Scorpio

 

Newest Review: ... the last 4 months I've had the head gasket blow, which cost about 600 pounds to fix (had this on one of the other ... more

 ... Granadas too)and now I've got a serious immobiliser problem which may mean the car being sold for scrap already. It's a very good alarm / immobiliser but once it goes wrong it's a nightmare to fix. The Scorpio is extremely quiet and is loaded with ac, CD, electric windows, electric sunroof, heated seats, nice stereo, electric seats, etc. Just don't expect everything to work though! Since I've had it, the heated seats have given up, and the electric sunroof, and part of the fan on the aircon, and the f...more

Crowned Review Ford Granada/Scorpio: 1987 Granada Scorpio 2.9 (1324 words)

Having spent too much money getting my old Capri shiny and rust free, I then got scared about having to leave the thing outside, open to the effects of vandals, the weather, and the gritting lorry that seem to enjoy pebble dashing it at least three times every night throughout the winter. So I started to keep an eye out for something else to drive while the Capri could languish in it’s warm, dry garage. The problem was that the Capri was such fun that I couldn’t really think of anything else I’d rather drive. So when my father decided it was time to buy himself a new car, and found his old Granada to be worth approximately the square root of naff all ...  Read the complete review

Crowned Review Scorpio - a birth sign ?? (541 words)

I bought an M Reg Scorpio in April 2000 for £5,300. Without doubt it was the worst and most expensive vehicle I have ever owned which was amazing considering I have had 27 cars previously. The following things were either wrong or never worked :- Headlights, gearbox, steering, heated seat, heated front window, cigar lighters , rear wash wipe, air conditioning, brakes, immobiliser, radio, starter motor and several other items. It had done 88,000 miles when I bought it, and broke down 30 times in the first two months. In all it was off the road in garages for 8 out of 13 months. The final straw came when after very considerable expense Ford would NOT ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Ford Granada/Scorpio: Not your common pile of Ford! (2995 words)

Well here I am again, yet another car opinion. This time I am venturing into the world of the Ford!, make the most of it, not often you will find me in with the likes of Ford. Now I am going to try and write this opinion and avoid being biased due to my general dislike of Fords, and give the old Scorpio a fair trial. I will spare you the long winded, and quite frankly, boring story of how I came to dislike Fords. We used to own an old Granada. It was a 2.8V6 Estate, (1985) Automatic. Beautiful car it was, had its problems, but you had to love it, and so powerful. Unfortunately, she got old, and although I took it under my care to restore her, I already ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Scorpio 2.0i (485 words)

About 2 months ago I happened to be looking at the trade-ins behind a local garage and came accross a 1990 Scorpio saloon 2.0 auto, in silver. It was a very hansome looking car with black leather interior, every electric extra, superb stereo system, and only 93,000 on the clock. I'd always loved the Scorpio from when they had first been produced, and now was my chance at owning one. I wanted to be sure that I wasn't buying a dud, so went over it with a fine tooth comb. I tried every switch, checked all the fluids, ie. brake, pas, engine oil, water, etc, checked for leaks, corrosion, crash damage, tyres, etc. After I was fully satisfied, I asked ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Ford Granada/Scorpio: Wheres the clutch pedal.....? (505 words)
by - written on 30/10/00 (Very useful, 395 readings)

The Granada Scorpio is such a lovely car to drive .We have had it for 2 weeks and its perfect. It a K reg. so its quite old but it runs so smoothly and has lots of creature comforts. My husband as always wanted one of these since his brother got one 6 years ago and he has sold it on to us. I must admit I wasn't sure about driving it as its an estate, a big monster and I'm used to driving a Peugeot 205 diesel .But after a test drive I was really impressed. It automatic( comes in manual too) and has gears 1,2,3 ,drive, park, neutral, reverse options on the gear stick.. For people who don't know about automatics, there is no clutch pedal, but the ...  Read the complete review
