My old XR2 Turbo Technics
Just found a shed load of pics of my old XR2, just thought I'd share them with you all
I had the shell resprayed in a metallic white with a blue pearl, you can just about see it on the pic of the bonnet with the sun shining across it.
The bloke I sold it to lost his licence and has left it sat on his drive for the last 2 years, I drove by it yesterday and its such a waste.
Damn I miss that car
(wouldn't go back though
)
Loads of mods done to it as well, I'll try and find the spec list...

Rich I've tried mate, he's not having it
If I get my compo money through from work I might go and flash some money in front of him
If I got it back I'd keep the turbo, dump the carbs and put a proper RST lump in there, run it on the T25
