I have no idear, but I think the rear squabs and integrated ariel point it to 1983... maybe....

Ford Orion?

[Fat_Pirate]

Orion Ghia I reckon.

[VWPowered]

Orion Mk1

Talbot Horizon?Interior looks quite Japanese though so not entirely sure.

[Pillock]

I know Orions had the same seat arrangement as that, the the window shape looks Orionish. But the Mk2s had different speaker grilles, so I'll say a Mk1. Looking at it closely it's got the same grab handles and headlining material as my mum's '87 Escort.Strangely, I was thinking some kind of Fiat before scrolling down to Taynes post, not sure why as I've never even see the interior of one!

[Cavcraft]

Here's a thought though:On the rear top left of the seat back, is that a button/lever thng to drop the rear seat? If so then isn't it more likely to be a hatchback?I know the Onion Ghia had one part of the back seat that dropped to allow limited boot access but didn't think it was on that side?Toyota Starlet?

[Richard]

It's definitely not a hatchback, the HRW wire is connected to the pillar. Quite a lot of saloon cars have folding seats.

[meggersdog]

Judging by the recessed speaker and quarterlight on the door I would say Ford Orion but not ghia spec as IIRC they had rear headrests.

[Mr H Sceptre]

Wouldn't an Orion have thicker C pillars though?

[barrett]

You guys are NERDZ.Onion seems right though....

[Guest Tony Hayers]

MK1 Orion GL (no rear headrests and you can tell by the trim).Yes, Yes, Yes I know that I must get out more.........Where did you get the picture from? It looks as if it was taken when they were new?

[whitevanman]

dont think it s an orion, the rear seat back fold down completely, not just the centre of the seat

I dont know, the upright strip of the window is pretty much bob on. Dont know whether the seats folded or not etc.

[Pete-M]

I'd go along with early Onion GL.
