FORD Orion 1.8 D 1990 - 1993
⌖
The third generation Orion came out in 1990 after its original release in 1983 but it wasn't met with enthusiasm by the automotive community. In fact, the car gained the same criticism as the Escort for its evident lack of design flair. On top of that, most of the engines were considered to be underpowered, especially the 1.3 and the 1.4 units. The Zetec model came to fix that later in 1992, when the suspension was fixed too.
