These 2-dr Granadas are supa rare, I wonder how many they made cos I don't ever remember seeing any back in the day even in car mags and that.

 

 

thats because its not really a granada

 

its a german 'taunus' or whatever, hence the 2-door and LHD. IMO its overpriced by at least 10K

I'm no euro ford expert but it looks like a Granada, isn't a Taunus a cortina-sized/based effort?

It is a Granada! its nice, bit pricey though!

 

 

The 2 doors were available as standard in europe/rest of world but never available in the UK unless imported (hence left hand drive). I think one of the UK police forces trialed one for traffic police but it was a one off, and im sure it ended up on the oval!

They also made a mk2 2 door saloon, but again I think it was never for the UK market.

 

Some more!

UK plates but LHD again!

 

Id love to have one! Make a great road trip to get one and drive it back too.

If he can tug 1200 then good luck to him, but it's salty none the less. The free market will speak soon enough.

 

Free. Now there is an expression I find suitable for evaluating old Ladas.

That Granada's a beauty in the flesh and it sounds amazing. Wouldn't pay that much for it though.

Fire up the Quattro (or Quatro)! 8)

Great.

That Carlton looks pretty decent IMHO although he says the bottom of the the doors needs attention. 

£895 with MOT to May is hardly giving it away but it's not "Bargains" material. They're getting pretty rare.

Still a lot of dough. Also, given the choice between this and a Bixe, I for some odd reason always tend to the latter.

Shall I?

Does anyone here know the car, or its owner?

 

I don't know it really, but if I had some money rather than a Golf, I would probably have bought it. Had a cambelt change 7k miles ago, CCC member, baffling lack of interest - it's been for sale for months. A BX diesel with less than 80,000 miles on it is rare indeed. I have made initial enquiries but a Skoda Estelle is now tempting me instead...
