1989 Ford Orion Ghia Fi review from UK and Ireland
"A very sound bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Wouldn't start fault with coil (£100ish)
Very dodgy central locking.
Expensive recent MOT:- break servo leaking, needed welding amongst some of the things.
New rear arches because of rust.
Can't remember anything else, but there has been other small problems!
General comments?
Very sound car and I will miss it!
Its not slow, but also not that quick.
Nice looking in black and very clean looking. looks great with clear indicators and side repeaters.
Bought for £625, money well spent.
Useless computer, don't take any notice of it!
When one looked as good as mine did it is an easy target for thieves as I found out.
