Ford Granada Taxi (1984)
1984 Ford Granada Taxi
CarHunch is tracking 132 1984 Ford Granada Taxi vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
Every single 1984 Ford Granada taxi in this dataset—all 132 vehicles—failed its MOT, a result that sits catastrophically below the UK average pass rate of 80%. With a 0% first-time pass rate and zero vehicles ever passing inspection, these cars have reached the end of their practical road life and should not be considered for purchase or ownership.
These vehicles are simply too old and worn to be roadworthy; the absence of mileage data suggests many are no longer actively maintained or registered. If you encounter a 1984 Granada taxi, treat it as a historical curiosity only, and do not buy one expecting to drive it legally on UK roads.
We have 132 1984 Ford Granada Taxi vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.
What to check before buying a 1984 Ford Granada Taxi
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.
