Default Probably the best standard xr2 there is

This car has only got 200miles on it from brand new,it also went to geneva to launch the new st150,been to various releases with ford uk,and was at classic ford show at santa pod this year and no doubt it will be out again next year.

Think this one is genuine as the Ebay Ad said it was from the Patrick Collection, so if you know anything then you'll know it's not a speedo cable job!
