1975 Ford Granada Mk1 2-Door Fastback Coupe – V6 Automatic (1972–1977)
PLEASE note we are listing this as a Project - Please read the advert description
A fantastic opportunity to own a rare Ford Granada Mk1 2-Door Fastback Coupe (V6 Automatic) — a true classic and one of the most desirable body styles from Ford's golden era.
Recently imported from South Africa, with UK Registration All Done V5 Present -Registration number is LLG 241N.
This striking example stands out with its bold colour scheme and period-correct rear window louvers — a rare and highly sought-after feature.
Equipped with the smooth and powerful V6 engine, this Granada sounds every bit as good as it looks. These Mk1 Coupes are becoming increasingly scarce, especially in rust-free condition and with the V6 powerplant.
Condition
Offered as a light project vehicle with excellent potential. The car is solid and largely rust-free, making it a strong foundation for restoration or tasteful improvement.
Engine: Starts and runs well
Gearbox: Smooth and functional
** Dashboard: Faded with a number of cracks and is in very bad overall condition — would benefit from refurbishment or replacement
Interior: Clean but dated; could use a full refresh (depending on personal preference)
Paintwork: Eye-catching and presentable, though not perfect
The car has been sensibly priced to reflect the minor cosmetic work needed. With some attention to the interior and paint, this Granada will easily become a real head-turner and a standout at any classic car event — especially being the rare 2-door V6 fastback model.
Model History: Ford Granada Mk1 (1972–1977)
The Ford Granada Mk1 was introduced in 1972 as Ford's flagship executive model for the European market. Replacing the Zephyr/ Zodiac line, it offered a refined blend of comfort, performance, and style.
Built in several body styles — including saloon, estate, and the elegant 2-door fastback coupe — the Mk1 quickly gained a reputation for durability and smooth V6 performance. The Cologne and Essex V6 engines were popular options, delivering the kind of effortless power that made the Granada a favourite among business executives and enthusiasts alike.
In 1974, the model received a facelift, featuring updated front-end styling with square twin headlights and detail improvements, like the example offered here. Production of the Mk1 coupe ended in 1977, making these cars particularly rare and collectible today.
Surviving examples, especially rust-free ones from warm climates like South Africa, are now highly sought-after by collectors for their striking looks, comfortable drive, and unmistakable 1970s character.
