1990 Ford Orion LX review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The bearings had to be replaced. Front and rear brakes replaced. Now the lights are shorting and draining the battery.
General comments?
There is hardly any lock for turning and it is very heavy to drive. It is a comfortable car but at times it feels as if you are driving a tank. I have had this car a year and have never stopped paying out in repairs.
