Default Bloody Ebay - Just bought another car lol

I am now the proud owner of a 1987 Ford orion L in galaxy blue.

Why?

Gonna have to go get it in the next few days now.

Are we addicted to these old fords?

In all seriousness, not really decided as it needs a few bits doing like fitting the supplied S2 bodykit and getting rid of the 1.6 carb cvh and drop something turbo'd in there.

However, at the moment im concentrating on getting the saph on the road so dont really need another money pit as 2 sierras are enough really
