Description
The Granada was allowed to be noticed in the street sceneThe Granada buyers were not to be had for subtle paint – their Cologne sedan was to be noticed. This was due to the Flowerpower times at the beginning of the 1970s. The appearance of the light yellow Granada was popular and with its size the car body on German roads was already given luminous character. For a long time, the first-generation Granada was the Ford counterpart to the Opel record. And so he quickly distinguished himself as an independant and competitive upper-class saloon at Ford's plants. Presented at the Geneva Motor Show in 1972, the Granada quickly attracted attention in view of its novel design, perhaps so unusual for Germany. It was just different from the predecessor series P7. The characteristic curves gave the viewer a sense of well-being and the first generation of Granada a sympathy as they should never regain the type successors. Thus, the Granada I has earned a place in the classic chronology of Wiking.Body light yellow, chassis in black gray. Interior fittings with steering wheel in black.
