In Brief:

  • Exceptionally clean and tidy Ford Granada Ghia Estate
  • Long history of clean MOTs
  • Well cared for example, with strong recent mechanical expenditure

Auctioneer's Notes:

An exceptionally clean and tidy example of the Ford Granada Ghia Estate, combining generous practicality with the comfort and specification expected of Ford’s flagship executive range. Presented as a well-cared-for example, with recent mechanical expenditure and a notably strong MOT record.

Maintenance & Condition:

The Vendor reports that the automatic gearbox has been reconditioned within the last 1,000 miles, alongside the fitment of four new tyres and a new battery. Regular servicing is also reported.

Service invoices from the last three years total approximately £854, supporting continued maintenance during recent ownership. The most recent MOT on file dates from May 2025 and records a pass with no advisories.

While the odometer currently displays 17,222 miles, the recorded MOT history shows a mileage of 99,440 miles in 2012. The current mileage should therefore not be regarded as warranted. Encouragingly, the online MOT history records no advisories since 2011, reflecting the apparent care and attention afforded to the car over many years.

History:

The original Ford maintenance guide is present, containing one service stamp entered on a blank page. A selection of recent MOT certificates and service invoices accompanies the car, although no earlier supporting paperwork is present prior to the recent three-year period. 

The Model:

The Ford Granada Estate combined the spaciousness and load-carrying ability of a large five-door estate with the comfort and refinement of Ford's executive flagship. In Ghia specification, the model benefited from the more luxurious trim and equipment associated with the range-topping designation.

Coupled with an automatic transmission, the Granada Ghia Estate was particularly well suited to relaxed long-distance motoring, while its substantial rear load area made it equally capable as a practical family or working vehicle. Today, surviving examples are increasingly uncommon, particularly those presenting in tidy and apparently well-maintained condition.

Sale Insight:

A particularly clean and presentable Granada Ghia Estate with useful recent expenditure, including a reconditioned automatic gearbox, new tyres and battery. Although the displayed mileage cannot be warranted due to the historic MOT record, its long sequence of advisory-free MOT tests and recent maintenance make this an appealing example of an increasingly scarce large Ford estate.

Estimate:
£4,500 - £5,500
