Case closed

An estate would have been great. A big missed opportunity for the HH-R range.

The reason Ford didn't build the first Cosworth into a saloon shell is simple, the saloon Sierra wasn't available until 1987, the 3 door Cosworth was released in 1985
ermmm im talking about the orion vs escort, escort being hatch, orion being saloon (escort with a boot) y no orion rs turbo, or orion cosworth, ermm simple becoz the hatch, has less weight meanin quicker of the mark, better handling, same with the astra(hatch) belmont (saloon)= astra with a boot, the list goes on, the extreme spoiler looks like sumat outta the maccy d's club or for the people who wish they had a evo or subs, honda made the chassis and intendid it for a hatch, u dont see many ferrari's, lambo's, buggatis ect ect in saloon, hmmm i wounder y??? and as u say the saloon was made for touring cars, that dont mean zit, as far as i remember the proper touring cars and rally cars were hatch's, and dont mind me spelling coz ive had a few stella artois haha

Some cars looks better as hatch backs some look better as saloons
the Orion is a ugly car Ive seen mk5 wide arch orion (cossie style) and its minging.
also I dont see many ferrari's, lambo's, buggatis in 4 door hatch form either hmmm i wounder y???

Also you didnt really need to tell people youd had a few stella artois I think we could tell that from your post!


at the end of the day some people like the hatch some like the saloon some like the mk1s most like the mk2s lol Its good to have abit variety on the forum
adds to the banter as long as you dont have one to many stellas and get abit ranty :laugh:

i dont think they suit the mk1's tho unless they have had the face lift, and i have no idea how much that would cost to get a front and back bumper, boot and spoiler and front grille plus headlights, any1 got any ideas lol

WalkerDnB 20-09-12 08:29 PM
