If only I could figure out my starting problems,
it's obviously the starter motor and i've read that cleaning the spade connector can fix the exact problem i've got,
I just have no clue what it looks like or how i'd get to it.
What are you honestly going to do with an Orion once you've restored it?
Seeing as your misses has a decent car and you've only got the flat bed,
are you going to use it as a daily?
If after a close inspection it's in a bad state just sell it on, hopefully you'll get your money back,
then put that money into the next one.
Personally I don't know what you see in them, i've always seen them as a sh*t version of an Escort,
but then again i've had quite attractive girlfriends...

with a car that's playing up, so he's asked me to ask you lot.
It's randomly cutting out completely without warning lights or anything,
turn ignition off and it'll restart, it gets worse with aircon on...
Holy sh*t £100k?!!!
Part of UK history though so it's to be expected I guess,
that's one hell of a getaway car.
