Advantages: Comfort and power

Disadvantages: Ouch, fuel consumption.

2.8i Engine, now that's what I call an engine. Granada's are the last great grunt cars from UK Ford. The Granada's I'm referring to are pre C reg.

These cars are huge and not as aerodynamic as the newer Granadas but for some reason they were more powerful. The car might be very heavy but the grunt of an 2.8i soon gets the car cruising at a speed that makes you grin. With a flick of your foot on the pedal the kick-down occurs and with a surge of power you feel yourself being pushed back into the seat.

This model is definitely a car to motor in with it's seats that are just like your favourite arm chair with the added bonus of them being heated.

This model maybe old but it also came with a computer built into the dash, displaying information such as distance travelled, how many miles you can go before it needs refilling etc.

I won't talk much about fuel consumption as it's not very nice, it's sufficient to say that if you drive hard, your wallet is hit hard.
