1992 Ford Orion Ghia EFI review from UK and Ireland
"Quick, temperamental, pinchable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Gearbox failure twice.
Starter motor.
Alternator twice.
Ball joints and bushes.
Shock absorbers.
Exhaust.
Broken into twice.
General comments?
I use the car for road rallies, so that is probably why it keeps breaking! I've also modified it as things have broken. i.e. performance exhaust, stiff shocks etc. She is a quick car but suffers from lots of niggling problems. On the whole very enjoyable.
