All they lost with the attempted conversion was time, though. All in all, they made 2 grand on the flip and would have made more if they'd broken the donor car. If I made 2 grand on "monumental f#ck ups", then I'd be _more_ than happy doing one every week!

Love the Orion. I owned a 1.6 ghia in Mercury Grey with the pepper pots in the correct colour. The white didn't look good at all. You could've rattle canned them back silver, and they would've looked better and spent the money on getting the bonnet done properly. The paintwork looked terrible.

Got visions of the owner closing the door at £1800 and chucking aside his crutches and giving it a big "yes" and fist pump down on one knee. Unless the donor Orion was rotten as a pear I really dont know why you never started with that one as it was already the better uk spec, the better colour, £800 cheaper and already a uk registered RHD car. The £1800 you actually spent on the first car could have gone a long way towards your costs doing right to to the RHD car and your time could have been spent better.....this was great for TV but in reality a crazy way to go about it both financially and in the thought process. Unfortunately now there is one less RHD Orion out the and the white pepperpots.......total sacrilege. That grey car deserved saving and getting her mint.

Buddy as you say it's a TV show. I get what you are saying. Although they'll often use a scrap car for parts. But like Wheeler Dealers ..which I suspect inspired this show..they do things for editorial reasons. I read on a forum that Wheeler Dealers often ended up selling their cars after the show was made on eBay. That the buyers may not be genuine. Although they insist otherwise. Like a Jaguar they restored went on to have three different owners and kept showing up online. But take it all with a pinch of salt what you see on tele. Especially the news 😅

I haven't read any other comments, so I'm not sure if it has already been mentioned, or not, but surely the pedal setup was also going to be a massive task to change over? I suspect that the whole exercise was never seen as being achievable, in the proposed time frame, but was chosen in the interest of TV/Video sensationalism. Please don't get me wrong, I did enjoy the video and look forward to seeing more.

The "proper" way to do the conversion would be to drill out all the welds from the RHD bulkhead and remove it. Then do the same thing with the LHD bulkhead, and then weld in the RHD bulkhead to the LHD shell. Then you just rebuild the dash and steering gear, adding in the right pieces as you go. The scuttle panel would also need to be changed for the wipers as they mentioned.

I once had a Mk1 Fiesta I left standing outside for years - looked OK from the outside, turned out the inner sills were almost entirely missing and it was rotten all round the rear suspension mounts. Fixable but not remotely worth doing.

I owned an maroon F reg 1989 LX 1.4 back in 1995. Bought it for 1250 from a dealer. There was a better one for 1500 in Aberdeen private, but I was on a foreign license so had to go through a dealer. Loved the sunroof as I had it open most long trips. Reason was my radiator had very few fins and the engine got a bit warm when it was over 16°. Never had a problem in Scotland but discovered it was an issue when I went to Bristol once and had to turn on the demister to drop the engine temp. Only rust I had was under the bonnet which with a wire brush and rattle can it was fixed. Had it for about 18 months and got 500 for it. The dealer scrapped it. Was told not to get the Ghia at the time because they had a lot of problems with cracked manifolds.

When the model was current I bought a LHD mk3 Cortina thinking I could swap everything to RHD but the scuttle was completely different which was odd because the Taunus was sold for LHD markets. Same thing with Essex V6's from Zodiac/Capri/Granada; where oil sump reversed to fit X member the pump mounting changed as well so you couldn't interchange between different models.

The insurance paid out and I purchased a beautiful new Golf 8v Mk2, one of the last that where available before the Mk3 replaced it.

oh dear, am only up to the penny dropping at 35 mins in, but had to jump in the comments lol I worked at a ford dealership in the parts department, when these cars were new. looking up parts on the microfiche always had different part numbers for LHD. I knew the obvious like loom, rack and headlights would be different. But it is small details like, the wiper blades, as the drivers side fully sweeps up to the A pillar and the passenger side creates an arc, consequently the scuttle has different mounting holes to achieve the correct effect for RHD. the body shells also had different part numbers and now I see why. time to resume and see what you do next.

Los televidentes no los entienden a Will y Gus, ellos hacen en realidad una parodia de los Talleres mecánicos, ellos no se toman muy en serio sus trabajos, y si fracasan con algún proyecto no se ponen a llorar 🤗👍❤️

Owned two of these cars , really nice cars, i also worked in the factory that built them, unfortunately you were never going to be able to change them over on a budget , body parts were purpose made for left and right hand and then welded, but nice car and well done for selling it.

When I was learning to drive in my mates mk2 XR2 my Dad had a diesel 1600 Orion I drove once. It was so slow, when I reached a tight bend I took it way too fast for my Dads liking. That was the last time I drove my Dads car since 1997.

They didn't get a 1.6 diesel from the factory they got an 1.8. I did however have a temporary car which was fitted with the 1.6D from a mk2 fiesta. It wasn't a ball of fire admittedly but it was more than capable of keeping up with other traffic.

Never mind the steering column bracket, nobody mentioned the need to change the pedal box. That would not be easy with the engine in situ!

I know they want to flip and sell as fast as they can to get the next one in. But never understand why they put the add up before they start

Mentioned lack of side indicators earlier in the video, then failed to transfer them over to the LHD one from the donor?

They were selling it to a buyer in mainland Europe, which is also the reason they didn't have to buy any headlights as the donor car's ones had no lenses on them.

Imagine going to look at a car to be greeted by one of these two chancers. Think I’d rather buy one from Birmingham

They actually did get called an Escort near the end of their run as well! Though we're talking mk5 base platform.

The donor car looks absolutely rotten and would require a massive amount of welding.
