someone talk me out of it

[orionmojo]

i'm bored of my orion

 

had t for two years, loed every minute but its now either turbo it, or sell it for another 200 quid runaround. i know you guys on here dont care, but its retro rather than osf (nearly as rare too ) and in 5 years tie it'll be a sought after motor i know.

 

anyway. just thought i'd share it

 

here it is anyway. i'm so deluded i didn't want to mod it too much incase someone wanted a nice clean example

 

if i dont change my mind, it'll be going in oct

[antz]

it does lookk very nice and clean.

 

keep it!

[Jimsiss]

just one word for you TTTTTTUUUUURRRRRRRRRBBBBBBOOOOOO

[RFChris]

Scrapping...!

 

its too clean to scrap! keep it!

[Mk2Jo]

It looks like a very clean car and you won't get anything anywhere near as clean for the money you might get for it ..... so, either keep it .... or sell it and get an osf .... look at Viv Ashton .. she got her little Fester for £26 and that's a proper osf

[BaileyMex]

Thats a clean Taxi

[Guest V6MAT]

wat is it a 1.4?

[ZetecVan 2.0]

Why don't you modify it.

 

 

 

 

Make a nice table that.

 

 

[Mk2Jo]

Tad harsh I fear........

 

Mate, think about it - if you sell it will you regret it?

If yes, dammit don't sell it.

You saw my old one mate, the Blue 1.4 Ghia in blast from the past!

 

You said mine was clean, & so is yours. I sold mine at the beginning of the year, & I do regret it a tad, so much so, I may be buying it back

 

Anyway, the values of Ford Orions are going up, so if it as clean as it looks, keep it! Why don't you do what I was going to do to mine, if it isn't a 1.6, put a 1.6 injection in it, with a good Mk3 Fiesta SI gearbox, exhaust pipe, and you will be well away, plus it all looks quite standard!

 

So Don't Sell It, Or I Will Come And Find You!!!

[ZetecVan 2.0]

I'm only messing. It looks a tidy car, but if you're bored of it, get something else. You could always buy another orion if you regret it.

[Smithy]

thats very clean! keep it mate!

[orionmojo]

everyone dismises the orion, they restore s1 and s2 escorts, but comdemn the onion to the scrapheap. in 5 years i reckon it'll be worth its money back anyway, i think it reached rock bottom a few years ago.

 

zetec van, so your the reason so many osf's met their death. cant scrap a car for the hell of it, and i now set the rest of the forum onto you for obviously killing so many when they weren't quite so old skool.

 

you cant just jump on the bandwagon when its cool. you have to cut your own groove and thats when the onion comes in. they are getting rarer and nice ones are hard to find- escorts are abit easier. i still dunno though. if i could sell it to someone who'd carry on enjoying it for what it is then great, but som many others also jst see it as a shitheap 17 year old car wth a rattly cvh and they'd just scrap it, bt its way too good for that, and it'd be a shame to break it. its never been welded, and is still set for another years ticket

So, what we all want to know is.............................

Naa, mate. Never scrapped a car in my life, but saved at least two from the scrappers. My Anglia failed its MOT in 1992 and has been under a very slow restoration since. My wife wants to scrap it but I won't let her.
