1983 FORD GRANADA GHIA iX ESTATE
The square and straight-lined Granada '78 appeared in August
1977 and was produced until April 1985 following a mild facelift
and attention to drive train in 1982. By the time of its
introduction, UK Granada production had been quietly abandoned for
the UK market Granada II's were imported from Germany. As the range
matured, another two models were introduced. This model borrowed
the 2.8i 'injected' engine from the Ghia model range. Towards the
end of its production run, the introduction of the 2.0 and 2.3 LX
saloon and estate provided UK versions with a slightly higher
specification than the 'base' L models. A special Ford of Britain
only, edition of the Ghia X model was later introduced as the 'Ford
Granada Ghia X Executive' which standardised luxury appointments
such as the high grade Connolly Leather interior that had
previously been an optional fitment. Further refinements such an
electric sunroof, electric opening boot on saloons, electric seat
adjustment, heated seats, trip computer and air conditioning set
the Granada Ghia X above most other cost comparable executive cars
available in the UK in the early eighties.
