And counting
Welcome to OOF
Drove it back from Tenby. We took her car as her cruise control goes down to 15mph (very handy in Wales ), whereas mine bottoms out at 20mph. Most of the journey was on the M4 but there are quite a few 40mph/50mph average speed monitoring sections so I had to behave. Her TFSI petrol is a punchy engine and can shift when prodded. Economy is very good for a petrol engine as well.Should have said you were coming I’d have had a word with Mark about the 20 plenty for you🤣🤣
Handled batter? Did a fish frier own it previously then….🤣🤣My old boss from a different life bought owned a MK2 2.8i Ghia auto.Big bro had a 2.8i Ghia back in the day, in the obligatory gay gold. He didn't have it long, it was just too unreliable, but it was a box he needed to tick at that point in his life, having always been a Ford man up until that point.
I remember being envious, and impressed with the performance and luxury.
The MK2 is the best looking Granada.
He replaced it with a Chavalier SRi 130 when they first came out. Faster, handled batter, less thirsty of fuel, and most importantly, bombproof from a reliability perspective.
