Default absolutely amazing retro ford orion 1.6 gl on stealths!NOW 1750

this really has to be seen to be believed.
one owner from new(no former keepers on v5),g reg car with 72000 miles.has got 6 months tax and has just flew an mot-the tester thought he had gone back in time!!!
finished in its original light beige colour with brown bumpers and immaculate brown interior.comes with electric windows and original ford digital stereo.
the engine is the quietest cvh i think i have ever heard,starts perfectly,5 speed gearbox that feels like its just come out of the showroom.
ok,to make it stand out it has been lowered and fitted with a set of retro 17 inch stealth alloys and a nardi 3 spoke steering wheel which i think just make it look awesome.
the body is about as good as you can get-absolutley solid and the paint is superb.all original panels and if its lasted 20 years and still looks like this there is no reason it shouldnt go another 20 years if looked after.
where else are you going to come across something as good,clean,cool(in its own way)-one owner with a full tax and mot???
price? its got to be worth 1995 !

please enjoy the pics;

Cool as foook, a lad owned a similar one in Coventry back in the day, I used to be so envious as I rolled round in my two tone beige over grey montego lol!!

Super cool looking motor, especially on the stealths.

stunning car, but im going to have to be in a minority, i dont really like stealth's, i think it would look better on some banded steels. car look time warp tho, steering wheel is nice and best of luck with the sale
