Unfortunately my photography skills ain't the best, but here goes.
The engine is an audi and gives out around 340bhp.
sorry, I've only got one picture.

I'm sure I had one like that somewhere.

It has to be the ultimate sleeper along with the Cortina and Volvo, if you can keep the exhaust quiet.

IMO A sleeper may have subtle changes but not enough to stand out from the crowd. A great example is the cortina estate looking stock but with cossie power as it's hiding the identity of it's true colours and makes it look like a normal everyday runaround.
The scoop and bodykit make the granada look more powerful than a standard granada.
