1992 Ford Orion Ghia Si review from UK and Ireland
"Great car, I would definately buy another if I get rid of this one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust went after a few months of me purchasing the vehicle.
General comments?
Very quick car (it's actually an XR3i engine in an Orion shell) 130bhp, 0-60mph in 8.1seconds top speed of 127mph (manufacturers figures).
Generally all round reliable and comfortable, other reviews I have read stated cold starting problems. This is not the case, starts first time every time.
Due to the Group 13 insurance rating, I would suggest an immobiliser is fitted to help lower the premium.
