EXTERIOR
The second-generation Ford Scorpio, first shown at the 1994 Paris Motor Show, took the motoring world by surprise thanks to its remarkable looks. Unique to the Scorpio, this garaged example is finished in stunning Loden Green Metallic, (Code 3 5), which boasts a superb uniform finish and polished shine to the factory paint. All original panels are beautifully preserved with no dings and there only very light blemishes and scratches visible upon close inspection. All chrome trim, bumpers and badges are in excellent order with just a very light rub to each rear bumper corner. Factory etched tinted glass and original light fittings remain and the underside is structurally perfect with PDI markings visible and a pleasing absence of excess applied underseal. Unique, beautiful and wonderfully preserved, despite what the meanies in the motoring press said about it when it was launched!
INTERIOR
This top specification Ultima model boasts an array of standard equipment that would put many of todays cars to shame, let alone in 1994 when the car was launched. The full Raven Leather, (Code SB), is immensely comfortable and in perfect condition with no visible wear whatsoever. The list of driver aids are endless and all are fully functioning including the ice cold air conditioning, cruise control, heated seats and electric driver’s seat adjustment with memory settings. The dashboard, burr walnut effect fascia, door cards and trim are as new, and the carpets and headlining are pristine. The auto dimming rear view mirror glass has tarnished. Imagine travelling an air-conditioned, ruched leather armchair comfort with every possible driver convenience at your fingertips, with this Scorpio you need not imagine!
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The preferred combination of silky smooth power and relaxed cruising is Ford’s 2.9EFi V6 engine developing 150bhp at 5500rpm and 233Nm torque at just 3000rpm. A top speed of 124mph and 0-60mph in 10.5 seconds is more than adequate for this large executive machine. The engine bay is very clean with factory stickers, panel stamps and plates fully intact. The 5-speed automatic transmission performs perfectly for the effortless cruising this car was designed for.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The 6X15 ‘Tear Drop’ alloy wheels are in excellent order with only very light scratches. Matching branded Falken ZE310195/60 R15 tyres were fitted brand new all-round in July 2019. This executive express stops as well as it goes with the electronically controlled ABS braking system featuring discs all round, ventilated to the front.
HISTORY FILE
Registered new on 23rd October 1995, the supplying Ford Main Dealer was Daron Ford of Hayling Island. This top specification Scorpio Ultima has covered just 27,379 miles from new with just three former keepers in total. The first owner being The Ford Motor Company before being purchased by the second, long term owner, Mr Graham Wilsher, who kept the car for 22 years. The original leather Ford zip wallet houses all vehicle handbooks, guides and dealership literature as well as the original stamped service book with eleven entries, eight of which were the supplying main dealer, Daron Ford. Completing the history file is an original Ford Scorpio range brochure. An almost forgotten chapter in modern Ford history, this exceptional plush, capable and controversially shaped Scorpio is without question one of the best preserved examples in existence and will always be the talking point on every journey!

As with everything you lads sell it must be one of the best available anywhere, but by god this truly is one Ford design they got so wrong and one i`d rather forget!..
Thank you for the comments.
Cars today look even worse
Those seats look damn good and in damn good condition.
It's predecessor is definitely easier on the eye and it was the wrong car at the wrong time but it's grown on me. Time has been kind to it.
I really don't see how this is ugly especially considering the junk on the market today.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Very true
AndysMTBlife I owned a gold montego 😂
@@Dan23_7 i had to drive a montego van ,it was owned by my uncle and when taking my grandmother to the Doctor i used it beacuse of the size ,later i saw it released as a rover montego with some wooden finishings
Wow a Scorpio just such low mileage .The previous owners must love it.I miss my Scorpio 2.9efi. I am in Taiwan ,great car.
The Ford Scorpio design had a touch of American about it at the time, and I say this as a compliment. Many people make derogatory comments about this car, but I seriously believe it’s a modern classic. This cars condition looks amazing, obviously well looked after and probably always garaged kept. The position of the radio antenna on the roof would make it not wise to take this car through a auto car wash, this means hand wash every time, so little chance of scratching the paint work. All in all a very good car for the money.
Thank you for your comment!
Those seats look so comfortable though....luxury.
Luxury from ford!
If I had the money I’d buy this in a heart beat, I love 1990s Ford’s and this has to be the ultimate one, perhaps even better if it was the cosworth engine but I’d be perfectly happy with the standard V6. I’m currently driving a 1998 Mondeo Ghia X 2.5 V6, it’s an awesome car too.
Thank you, we love this car too!
Can you believe that this was Ford's answer to challenge Mercedes Benz. It was slammed by motoring journalist's for being so ugly. Ford even tinted the edge of the headlight glass to try and make it less bug eyed but it didn't work.
Thank you for sharing.
really i, could had bought one cheap 10 years ago but those headlights made me remenber some caterpilars that eat the olive tree leaves
Much better than most of 2020s SUVs
Thank you!
Wow these cars you have are the cleanest examples I have ever seen, I remember a teacher in school had one of these and I used to hate it now I'd love one especially that clean.
Thank you for the kind words.
Well I never knew there was an "attractive scorpio" 😂🤣
Really? Just look at this one!!
@@KGFClassicCars I am not saying its not a lovely example, but lets face it, she has never won, or ever will, win a beauty contest!!
I know Capricorns are better looking
It's the most beautiful car ever made, probably.@@Plane_For_All_To_See
@@KGFClassicCars It could well be.. for the visually impaired!
What were Ford's design team thinking! Great value for the right buyer.
Andrew Marsden As an after sales manager at the time I went to the Ford dealer launch in Spain as I remember and the Ford Europe marketing director said and I quote 'If the car is good enough people won't worry about what it looks like' unfortunately what they didn't understand was that if people don't like the way it looks they will never find out how good it is because they won't even take a test drive. It's a shame really because it was a really nice car to drive, I had a 2.9 for a couple of months after launch as my demonstrator.
Wow, a very, very good TH-cam channel. Respect. deserves more attention.
Thank you for your comment!
The Scorpio looks like something that belongs in the US market and not the european. cheers
Thank you for your comment!
The Ford Scorpio a luxurious 1990s 4 door saloon with leather interior
Thank you for your comment!
Very nice car indeed.I always liked the Scorpio.Futuristic looking,and,above all different!
Why do people always criticise 'different'?That's why everything looks the same these days.l drive an Audi A2,so different rules for me!Wouldn't mind one of the last of the original Fiat Pandas.
Anyway,great looking car there.
A ten from Len❤😎👍!
The Rover SD1 was, and arguably still is s beautiful design, because its proportions were bang on! Just a shame the BL build quality was patchy.
But with this Scorpio, the opposite is true. Good build quality but an ugly design, with questionable proportions.
The infamous "wide mouthed frog"
To think the design made it all the way to the sales forecourt. I get that some people will love it though, each to their own.
Thank you for your comment!
They were good funeral cars
I most admit when it first came out i didn t like it like it too mutch,
But today s car styling
Has become mutch more permissive and extravagant,
And it seems to me that the scorpio design has gained some points....
It is very comfortable on long journeys
Quite and those seats are some of the best.
It is heavy and the cosworth drinks a little but hey,
In the end i appreciate this car.(who gives a damn what i like tho)
Thank you for your comment!
Seats looks very comfy
They are!
Molto bella questa Ford Skorpio 2.9!
Thank you!
Ha un design spaziale la scorpio.
È bella senza essere aggressiva o cattiva come piace tanto a noi.
La ford ha prodotto moltissime auto e anche furgoni con facce gentili.😉
Interior is outstanding👍❤
Thank you!
I think previous owner was blind .
The colour is exceptionally nice
Great colour unique to the Scorpio!
Mechanically, these cars were superb. Outstanding engines, whisper quiet, comfortable, well-equipped, lovely to drive and decent handling. Unfortunately, it was all wrapped in one of the ugliest bodies ever to wear a blue oval.
Exactly this. I had 2 24v cosworths of these. Excellent cars, but even an odd car nerd like me couldn't justify having such a thing be seen parked on the drive!
You have zero taste.
What a fantastic barge... Extremely unpopular at the time of release because of its frog eyed styling new age Granada looks. But i wouldn't say no to a Cosworth version
Neither would we. Love to get a Cosworth version!
Subjectively absolutely stunning!
Yes it is!
I wouldn't go so far as to say that the Ford Scorpio was an attractive car because it wasn't at all!
In the words of Quentin Willson: 'Hardly handsome & are we ready for groan inspiring ugliness?!'
However I do like the immaculate condition inside & out & obviously this car has been very well cared for by its last owner. Is there another Ford Scorpio out there in the same condition as this car I wonder?!
I actually like it but preferred the tinted headlights of the facelift model. Good value and if its even half as good as the Granada Scorpio mk3 I once owned it will be a belter.
Thank you for sharing!
Amazing !
Yes it is thank you!
This Scorpio wasn't one of favourite cars but it's interesting
Great cars!
if i had money at the time i would have bought a white one, all revised by ford low milage and only 3.000€ but ihad just bought a bmw 740D ,so it was impossible to me to afford it,regards
I hope you'll find a nice 24v version soon. Doesn't matter if it's the MkIII Granada (known as Scorpio MkI in rest of Europe) or this "Mk2" Scorpio body, but a 24v Scorpio would be nice to see since it was Cosworth that tuned those engines :)
Be great to work with a Cosworth version but very rare!
Berry attractive indeed
It would sit better on the multispoke alloys which were an option but I love them. Cracking find guys 👍
Thank you for sharing!
I went to the Birmingham motor show when it was launched. Got a lot of publicity, but for all the wrong reasons. I believe it's a well engineered car, just the runt of the litter. A bit like the Edsel in America. It'll be worth a small fortune in a few years time.
Thank you for sharing!
Can't see a better way of spending £4.5k on a car...
the car wasn´t that bad and the look was the fashion of the 90´s, all brands released rounded cars
Nice car only the back is where i think ford got it completely wrong in those days. .
nice cer
Thank you!
"Attractive"??
At least being inside you can’t see the outside,lovely example though....
This is true, except why would you not want to see the outside, it's beautiful!
hope you sell a toyota century 5.0 V12 at some point id love to buy one
So would we!
Always so begiled, I quite liked them, then every car sort of went that way.
Great cars!
All they had to do was update the granada mk3 from the front and back and they would of had a winner.........but we got this! Ps never saw it in this colour, what is it anyway?
Looks like they forgot the blue in ford logo on steering wheel!!
Is this not sold yet?
We loved it so much we have it back in stock!
Last generation scorpio before fore done away with it... not often you see these up for sale
У меня скорп.Класс!
Great enjoy the car!
ive owned all the 2.9i and 2.8i models ranging from 1979 v reg to 1997 p reg.
Had the germans drop their heads in shame and envy.
Thank you for sharing!
The Germans? The Ford Scorpio is also basically a German car with an American name and built in Cologne Germany.
The older shape was beautiful this is a lovely example but bloody ugly there arnt many around as they didn't seem to sell
Thank you for the comments.
Very controversial look, but I like it!
We like it here!
1995 Ford Scorpio...
You do realise that there is no such thing as a very attractive Ford Scorpio !!😂
John Davey Butt ugly frog 😂
Is it just me who finds this car very attractive would make a very comfortable motorway cruiser so sad that I'm financially embarrassed at the moment 😩😡😭👤👍
No you are not the only one!
I've got 2 p reg 97 23 16v and a 95 m reg 25 td love them show mine at car shows
And Mark 3 Granada coswoth
Great enjoy the cars!
Lot of "ugly" car for the money!
Thank you!
Its basically a Mondeo inertia, my 2 ltr mk1 estate ghia was the mirror image....Were these American ?....
No these were UK and European cars!
Year
1995
Sarcasm with the “Very Attractive” lol
Tongue in cheek!
They don't do car colours like they used to.
It may get terrible comments, but so did the Ford sierras back in their day, but now you need a mortgage to buy one
This Ford fell out of the ugly tree. And hit every branch on the way down.
Buy it before it melts the rest of the way.
Good, excellent condition though.
Great car!
Nice car, but with a face only a die hard enthusiast could love. Fat arse as well.
But plus points for all that ruched leather, and the V6 lump.
Thank you for your comment!
The words "attractive" and "scorpio" are non compatible... Poor Scorpio...
Ugly at the time but compared to the rubbish SUV's today, it is a masterpiece!
A amazing example of an extremely rare car. However, this was (and still is) a horrendous looking car. I remember also that the build and reliability was pretty awful on these too.
I am a happy owner of the ugliest car from 1995, my comfy Scorpio!
Enjoy the car!
Low mileage as owners too ashamed to drive a fugly car.
i think it´s more related with the comsuption of it´s V8, regards
Ugly as sin ........ but that's it's character in my opinion, and taste is subjective. Not to my taste lol
My dad had the 2.9 cossie Scorpio. Now that was a nice car that went like stink
The Cossie was a great edition to the range!
One of the ugliest Fords ever built. To me, only the second generation Taurus is uglier... By the way, 2.9 12v is ultra rare in the Frogeye
Thank you for sharing!
What on earth were they thinking? This bug eyed thing is the most hideous car from Ford ever.
Thank you for sharing!
The ugliest car ever made. The Granada was a great car. 2.9 v6 cosworth.
Cosworth was a great car thank you for your comment!
Horrible looking but for an enthusiast it's a bargain, can't be many left in that condition.
Not many left now!
The ugliest car Ford ever made. What a misleading title. 😂😂😂
Thank you for your comment!
I think you are stuck with it at that price. Its too ugly
Thank you for your comments.
keep in mind that every car started looking like this. So you're probably retärded.
@@ohlawd6272 dude i like the granada/scorpio before this one.
But this...this is just an UGLY design.
@@alphatrion100 tbh people only called this ugly because back then every car had the same boring cookie cutter design.
