EXTERIOR
The ultimate sporting Orion, the Ghia Injection is highly sought after and few more so than this stunning 30,120 miles example. Finished in gleaming Factory cost optional Black, (Code A 7), the car looks superb from any angle. Incredibly, the car still wears original panels with date stampings and the underside is fabulous with a factory finish free from underseal. All trim sections are in amazing condition with just a few markings to the bonnet and one touched in chip. The Ghia badges to the boot lid and front wings remind the neighbours that this car exudes luxury, yet the bright red inserts to the trim add a splash of sportiness! The car retains its dealer number plates front and rear as well as the rear screen sticker.
INTERIOR
Trimmed in luxurious Shadow Olivia cloth, (Code LE), with matching door panel inserts, the specialist materials unique to the Ghia model are very clean. The seat material is unworn and retains perfect shape. The coloured keyed cut pile carpet has been protected by genuine Ford rubber ‘waffle’ floor mats from new and the conscientious previous owner even had a plush carpet mats set tailor made to fit over the top of the rubber set! All switchgear and gauges are functional including the original ECU2 stereo with optional power amplifier and graphic equaliser. There are no cracks or warping to the dash plastics and the headling is undamaged. The boot area is immaculate including the spotless boot floor and spare wheel well.
ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The 1.6 litre OHC (CVH) MFi 4-cylinder engine features Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection and produces 104bhp allowing a top speed of 115mph and 0-60mph in 9.3 seconds. This example drives brilliantly and the standard exhaust system emits the instantly familiar CVH rasp! The engine bay is original and clean and retains all factory plates, stickers and labels. The five-speed manual gearbox is a joy to operate with a positive shift and perfectly weighted clutch movement.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The iconic Orion Ghia Injection ‘Pepper pot’ alloys wheels are an instantly recognisable representative of 1980’s sporting Fords, and those fitted to this example are pristine throughout costing an optional £239.43. A brand new set of premium Uniroyal RainTyre 185/60 R14 were fitted in August 2024 and originality seekers will be pleased to see a correct set of period Pirelli P600 tyres that come with the car. The factory spare tyre has never been used and still showing colouring banding to the tread. The diagonally-split dual line servo assisted braking system with front discs and self-adjusting rear drums are further aided by the factory optional ABS.
HISTORY FILE
Factory records confirm the car rolled off the production line on the 1st May 1987 and was subsequently supplied by Main Dealer, Woking Ford and registered new on the 26th August 1987. The car has covered a verified 30,120 miles from new and remains in stunning unrestored condition. The previous owner, Mr Morgan, purchased it from a club member after extensive searching and for nostalgic reasons. His late father had an identical one brand new and once acquired the personalised registration number was put on it and outings with his mother were enjoyed visiting all their family holiday destinations.
A comprehensive file of invoices and MOT records warrant the low 30,120 miles which accompany all handbooks and the service original book with 19 entries. The most recent service was carried out in September 2024 and a cambelt change is documented in 2021 at 28,302 miles. The car has never had a recorded MOT advisory which speaks volumes for its ongoing cossetted existence! Two sets of keys are present with fobs.
