Dammit barry! Why is there never a Buy It Now option on these classics? I'm now faced with an anxious bidding war!


Because Barry knows that there are so many people out there who would want to own this fine example that the bidding will go through the roof for it.

What's that you say?.... there isn't in fact a load of classic car collectors beating down his door to own it....

Q: Barry, can you tell me what an "XR3i/Cosworth" engine actually is? I don't recognise it. Thanks.
A: Barry? Who's Barry? Anyway. The car had a bigger engine fitted a few years ago from a 1.3 to a 1.8i. The top half of the engine is a cosworth engine which also has a chrome top - just to make it look good and the bottom half is an XR3i engine. The new engine has done 67000 miles. I have all the receipts from it being done and all the MOT slips from then aswell. Hope this answers your question but if not please don't hesitate to get in touch. Thanks, Kirstin

AND THE BEST

Someone from here ? BARRYSBOYS SITE REPLY


My doing I'm afraid. I just did not understand the engine setup, so I thought I'd ask. The 'Barry' intro was just for people here.
