1994 Ford Granada Scorpio I A

CarHunch is tracking 2,234 1994 Ford Granada Scorpio I A vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.

A 1994 Ford Granada Scorpio with a 10% first-time pass rate is dramatically unreliable compared to the UK average of 80%—nine out of ten cars fail their MOT on the first attempt. The petrol variants perform identically poorly at 0%, and while dangerous defects are absent from this cohort, the sheer failure rate makes this a serious red flag for any potential buyer.

These Granadas average 119,061 miles, which is substantial for a 30-year-old car, and the zero average failures and advisories per vehicle suggests the data may be incomplete or based on a very small successful subset. Before considering one, get a pre-purchase inspection from a specialist and budget heavily for remedial work, as you're almost certainly buying a car that will need significant repairs to pass its next test.

What to check before buying a 1994 Ford Granada Scorpio I A

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
