SUMMARY
An impressively presented Mk1, fully restored a few years ago to, what appears to be, the original factory specification.
DESCRIPTION
- Ford have never been slow when it comes to developing sporting versions of their standard cars but surprisingly, it took nearly six years before a genuine performance version of their little Fiesta was added to the range
- Purchased in 1982 from Meadow Vale Garage costing £5,019.83, this non-sunroof XR2 still retains its original Bill of Sale and rear window sticker
- Powered by the 1.6-litre Kent Crossflow inline-four, which sends around 84bhp to the front wheels via a 4-speed manual box
- Fully restored and off the road between 2013 and 2019
- Finished in black, this XR2 has the correct red pinstripe accents around the body and the grey gradient decals. The seats are upholstered in Shark Grey crushed velour with 'Storm' striped centre sections, with the same finish on the door cards.
- It retains its factory spotlights and sits on 13" x 6" 'pepperpot’ alloy wheels with 185 x 60 low-profile tyres.
- Supplied with previous MOTs, invoices, original handbooks and the Bill of Sale along with both sets of ignition keys
