A couple of pictures taken of mine whilst at Ford Fair last year, not 100 percent a sleeper as the clues are there for the keen eye'd but for those who aren't its an E reg Orion. However its viewed it's still my pride and joy even 8 years into ownership

They are clears (now discontinued) which I have painted with tinting spray, I believe I was the first to do it to a mk2 Orion as well got the idea from when Twin's Escort RS turbo was featured in Performance Ford a few years back. First question people always ask about the car is where I got the lights from lol

I seen a modded blue integra (i think) about 6 years with clear lights, with the bottom half tinted blue, loved that look, and def love the look on the Orion ones.

Looking for a clear set myself to do same

I've recently brought a MK2 to do as a project... not done much to it yet... just getting parts together... Engine will be the last thing... So far managed to get hold of S2 arches and side skirts, 90's spec front bumper, turbo bonnet, full Mongoose exhaust system... and some Koni adjustables...



My last Orion was a MK3... not turbo'ed,but eventually went well with the 130bhp 1800i lump init...

Some lovely cars there!
Bomber's, Knoxville's Smudge's and Andy's are all gorgeous!

I've always been tempted to 'do' an Orion, and nearly did recently, but went for a MK4 Estate instead as it's for work use and I really can't have a saloon for that....

Someday I'll get an Onion though!
