Ford Consul 1972-76
In 1972 the 'Consul' name was given to a new lower-priced version of the pan-European Ford Granada. Standard engine was the 1996 cc Essex V4, or 2495 cc Essex V6, but there was also a 2994 cc Essex V6 option for the Consul GT. Both 4-door saloon and 5-door Estate bodies were offered. In 1975 Ford dropped the 'Consul' badge and these cars were re-badged as 'Granada'.
