Scorpio 24V
Hi from Adelaide. Just found this forum and thought I'd share my pride and joy.
It's a 1992 Granada Scorpio Cosworth V6 24V. The auto box has gone and in it's place is a T5 5 speed. The engine is pretty much standard apart from being de-catted (as it's pre Aug '92 it didn't need cats in the UK) and it passed all the tests it needed to to be registered here. It came with me when I moved here 7 odd years ago. (the wife insisted we brought the kids so I insisted we brought the Cosworth!) It's used daily and has the baby seat in the back for my youngest.
There aren't too many of them over here, I know of one in WA and I've already got first refusal if he ever sells it and an older hatchback was up for auction a while ago, I'd like to know of any others anywhere.
I'll try and post a picture of it now, if it doesn't appear, I'll have to get my 16 year old to do it for me![:I]
Cheers for now.

Very nice. Good to see something a little different from the Ford stables.

That is a beauty. Neat on the outside and in the engine bay...Go the Cossie!
Any interior photos?

Sorry for the quality but these were taken on my mobile but you get the idea.
These are the front seats. They are actually from the later Frog eye model Scorpio and I prefer them to the originals. They are 10 way electric (Forward/ backwards, front up/down, back up/down, recline and lumber in/out) and they are heated.

And these are the rears (minus baby seat). They are also electric and recline into the boot area.



Cheers to Lincoln for adding it to the Cossie register too. Much appreciated mate.
Cheers.

Looks "luxurious"....How about the Dash and ICE?

I googled Granada Scorpio, one usually results in the later model which does not look as good as yours externally...
