Yeah was in Fast Ford last month, but unfortunatly it was the previous owner who got his mug in the feature but i had the pleasure of driving it while it was out

Cool, it's not the Orion I was thinking of but yes, thats pretty good power from a fairly standard lump, although set up correctly they will cope with 180bhp no worries!
Have to say mate it's one of the nicest looking i've seen for quite some time! Nice touches in it like the rear headrests too!
Get some more pics up if you can, a side shot would be nice!
