I'm amazed at this place sometimes!

It was indeed a F reg Granada 2.3L Ghia x (the one that looks like a Sierra from the front) , not seen one in years and was in very good condition.

Which I crashed. No damage but I managed to slide it sideways on ice coming down the hill from Nottingham into Grantham one day. Between two lamp posts and a sign where it stopped and I could drive it out again.

Lucky escape.

If it was behind you, how do you know it was a 2.3 or a Ghia X?

It doesn't have to be a mutually exclusive thing wink

It was behind me for ~2 miles before I stopped at a red light to turn right whilst he went straight on.

I remember chasing a 2.8i round some twisty roads in my bubble Micra. Great fun.

Expect to get lots of moaning but I still think this was the last great Ford.
