1983 Ford Granada 2.8i Ghia X | Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon, Armagh

This is a 1983 Ford Granada 2.8i Ghia X, from the square-edged second generation of Ford's rear-wheel-drive executive car. The Granada was the big, comfortable Ford of its day, and the 2.8-litre V6 range sat at the smoother end of it. This car is Blue with a grey interior and is in excellent condition. The Ghia X trim and the upright, straight-edged body give it a formal, tidy look, and the cabin has room for five. The calm colour pairing reads clearly as early-1980s Britain. That look suits advertising and film and TV work set in the 1980s, where the car can stand in for a company car or a plain-clothes squad car. Its clean, flat panels and generous space around the car work well for photography, fashion and editorial shoots and music videos. It also makes a dignified choice for a wedding or a special occasion. The car is based in Armagh.
