Default Honest ebay advert for a ropey orion
Mate of mine is selling his orion:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1989-FORD-...730933&afsrc=1

NOT posted intended as a for sale thread, its going for scrap money anyway realistically, I just posted as I think its a pretty funny advert and its nice to see a bit of honesty on ebay for a change.

If you have any questions, email me through eBay and I will judge you based on your level of the use of the English language and decide if I want to reply or not.

The only thing missing from that add would be a mis quote from dirty Harry....

"I know what you're thinking. "Did I miss out the bit about the flat battery" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a ford orion 1.6 and would blow your mind, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punter?"
