as most of u know i sold my white s2 in my sig few weeks back.the lad had it a week and it was rear ended.
im tinkin of building or buying an rs turbo'd orion.(mk2 orion)(mk4 escort shape)
i could probly buy my old s2 back and swap all parts or i could buy an efi 1.6i orion and efi turbo it.whats peoples thoughts?
anyone know of any about?
or ones that are already done etc?
pics lol?
cheeRS.

reason i want orion is cos its 4 door.and i cnt afford a cossie.

Loads of good orion bases still about. you'll get a solid ghia and change for Ł500. Make sure you get one with a good back bumper though, you just CANT get them. anywhere. seriously.

Heres mine i built last year, and am still fixing problems with.

you'll always have the slight sleeper look with an orion too, which i absolutely love.

build it ya self..atleast u knw whats inside it...find a 1.3 though,as wen u insure it,it will be so much cheaper,my rs2k orion cost me only Ł110 fully comp a year..im building 2 orions at the mo,a mk1 and a mk2,mk2s in white,mk1 will be series 1 kitted,just waiting for end off month when can drop it with jamsport,so if any1 wants any parts,inc dash,then they will av to call him....good luck with it,and dont let any1 put you off,orions are always the dogs danglies,enit mojo....

rickbartlett
