1988 Ford Orion LX review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Ball joints, heaters stopped working, steering linkage, handbrake cable snapped, shocks.
General comments?
This has got to be the dullest car I have ever driven, the low driving position made for an un-nerving drive on motorways, people always say "get a Ford or a Vauxhall cos the parts are cheap"...... I've had every Ford car now..... and I've hated them all. Reliable though...
