Something a little bit more.. insurable

[waue1978]

Oh I don't mind about value, I'm going to run it until the pistons come out of the exhaust and then some Guess I should take advice from somebody who's bought and sold at least 912378162831823 cars

You're not referring to this are you?

Jealous of your mk2 Granada 2.8 Ghia Xs.

Me dad had one that looked like this

[waue1978]

My first one was pretty much the same. Even still had the spoiler at the front (which most injection models seemed to lose), but the looker was my black one which was non injection, but manual. Actually had my blue injection back from my mum after a while, but kept the best bits from my black one (Tinted rear lights, wide OZ split rims & Janspeed back box from a Calibra) & put them on old bluey.

One day I'll dig out my old photos from the loft & get them scanned & uploaded.

it and the capri are the best looking cars ford ever made, i love the look of the granada, and its dash was lovely with all the wood, the big seats and more gagues than a plane.

Ihad a granada estate (ghia)
the thing was mint bought it with a knakerd engine,
had it in the garage over a year couidnt get an engine for it,
in the end me and a mate threw a jag engine in it Made up some mounts and bodged the prop,
it lasted a good 3 or 4 meetings at the banger track,
good stong car thems

bloody hell i had a couple of them a 1.6 and then the daddy 1.9 and they both cost me much less than that 15 years ago, i knew i should have looked after em a bit better

[FarmerPug]

id love a red 205 aswell, thats the price for a good one, if you want something not as good as that one:

I'd love a project 205 car.. just need to get a house with a secluded driveway and possibly a garage. I'd just love to restore it to what one would look like coming out of the dealership in 1989, rust proof it and then start tinkering with the engine, maybe whack a pair of webbers on it? Who knows. I'd sure love a 1.9 though. Drove a 1.6 for at a pass in the mountains back at home last year and literally wanted to stay there forever, it was so sharp even in the wet and for a front wheel drive car they sure are slidey the little froggies

If I ever become properly rich all I'll do all day long is work on Ladas and Puggies

[FarmerPug]

They definatley are fun to drive, they are prone to a bit of oversteer so you cant be sleeping when driving one, but id prefer the 205s oversteer than a golfs 3 wheel trick.

Look at this one then, 10 grand

[FarmerPug]

well it is very clean, but at £10k youd be looking for the t16 version instead.

[waue1978]

Or £5495 for a 1.6. But seriously, check out his other stock:

There's a few lottery purchases in that little stocklist. My first one would have been this if it wasn't already sold:
