Ford Orion Price Guide
-
typical price 13 October, 2026
The Ford Orion of 1983 to 1993 was, basically, a booted Escort. It was a three-box saloon using the Escort Mk III, IV, and V platforms for buyers who preferred a conventional boot to the Escort’s hatchback. The Orion offered identical driving dynamics and mechanicals in a body that appealed to saloon-car buyers who distrusted the hatchback format. The Ghia specification with its plush interior was the executive choice.
Buying
The Orion and Escort are mechanically identical. The Orion Ghia is the specification worth seeking. Standard Orions are now very rare.
