1988 Ford Orion L review from UK and Ireland
"Excellent value, rust protection should have been better"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problem is corrosion of the rear panel.
General comments?
Being a mechanic I like the car's reliability and ease of maintenance.
Getting all parts trade keeps the running costs to a minimum.
30 + mpg is excellent for a car of this age, especially as I don't take it easy.
