actually we "borrowed"the falcon design up till about 1988 when the ea falcon was released.the xd/e/f falcon was based on the granada.i don't quite know in which countrys the granada was released in,only know that they were sold in the uk.

Most of Europe had the Granada MkII.
The Falcon is a physically slightly larger car, and the rear suspension is completely different being semi-independant on the Granada (a carry over from the MkI) rather than cart springs (at least on the XD).
Good looking car though.

Good Ole Ford.
Just like the Mustangs from 79 to 2004. Heck...our floorpans date back to 77/78 when they were used in a Sedan.
