1990 Ford Orion equipe review from UK and Ireland

"Very good reliable car and cheap if you live near scrap yard"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Had to buy a new back left wheel bearing only cost 20 pounds though.

Had to buy a new front indicator and bumper because of a woman in a landrover (god I hate that) hit me funny thing is though it wrote off the new landrover, but only broke my indicator! tough car or what.

Had to buy a new back bumper because it finnaly cracked off after previous owner reversed into a post. Must be because of all the ice we are having.

Sprayed all bumpers black now and trims cleaned up all paint work not finding any rust fitted sony cd player and infinity speakers front and back (definetly recommended if you like bass cuz I aint got a sub, but all my mates think I have, not bad for forty watts a channel and a bill of 250 pounds it must be the boot grabbing the sound a bonus in the car design)

Had its fist mot with me and only failed on emissions (probably cuz of new bosch super 4's sparc plugs I fitted)

Had my origional alloys cleaned buy my mate definitly worth it looks great.

General comments?

This car is quik as standard.

But with only a few mods it can be even quiker than any nova I found out.

I only bought this car for 400 pounds and I'm the third owner.

And in total I have spent only 900 pounds getting to my tastes which is £$%&**?@ cheap.

I love the interior it is so comfortable and spacious and sunroof BONUS?

Only bad thing is the back end is higher than the front end so from side view looks wierd, but hopefully fixing that soon.

Only other draw back is trieng to reverse backwards it is sort of gues work!
