Daggle Posted October 3, 2007 Report Posted October 3, 2007 So yesterday I was asked if I could speak to the press about a restored Granada. This turns up, the chap that owned it bought it as a shell. It had been rotting in a garden and had been used as a Garden Shed, with ppl just using it to dump rubbish in. This car was origanally a Traffic car that was in service with Kent Police. It was sold and went through several owners. It was then restored and has just been sold back to Kent Police for our Museum.
Daggle Posted October 3, 2007 Author Report Posted October 3, 2007 It's even got the original Michelin TRX alloys and tyres, the tyres were £200 each and are only sold through 2 outlets in Europe
