Having been out of the Ford "scene" since about 2007, I have just bought myself a Mk1 Fiesta XR2 replica.

Hopefully picking it up next week. It's got a few issues to fix, little niggling bits like the fuel gage reading incorrectly and the seatbelt clip in not working, but hopefully nothing major.

This place seems rather quiet these days, I guess Facebook killed the forum vibes.

 

Yep very quiet sadly

 

Thought I'd better put a couple of pics up

 

Nice, did whoever converted it use the xr2 bulge rear valance to complete the look?

 

No, unfortunately no rear bulge. But given it's on a V plate, anyone who knows will know it's a rep anyway.
