Just bought a mk3 XR3i in silver, its had a knock in the front but the main reason i bought it was its never been welded! its still got original battery tray and inner wings and there all mint. Its got 75,000 miles im the 4th owner so quite a good basis to start from. Heres some pics of its present state.........




So ive started buying myself xmas pressies already, i managed to get some gen ford wings and front panel off a guy from here then bought some smoked front and rear lights, a nice 3 spoke rs wheel, a set of koni's, a strut brace, some rs seven spokes and not forgetting a lovley set of..........


So next stages are to get it in the body shop for the panels to be put on and a full blow over then i can start to put all the bits on. Oh and waiting on the engine to be built as well. Let me know ya thoughts and if you got any ideas of other things to do to it id like to hear them.

 

cool keep the updates coming

 

Mk3's rule. Keep it silver

 

Yea i was going to keep it silver, and keep it fairly std looking on the outside apart from the seven spokes and maybe an rs16i front spoiler.

 

Sleepers are the best way mate... basic to the eye... killer on the track/ motorway!!

 

I like the old mk3's keep us posted

 

nice mate. its got the opening 1/4 windows aswell

mk3's do rule

 

talk thereof more

 

 

Took her down to the body shop yesterday and got a quote for the work to be done, replace the front panel and two wings, repair the door, take the doors off and paint inside all the shuts and paint the whole car and paint the black round the windows again........Ł1400 all done?? I didnt think that was too bad. Whats your views on that?

 

sounds like a bargin mate !, get some black rims on it rs 1600i front spoiler and keep it dead simple outside, luverly

 

what body shop was that ?

 

Sounds a decent price for the bodyshop


Drop me a line if you want an RS1600i front splitter

 

The body shop is just one in margate my brother use to be a skivvy at, they done my birds frst and done a nice job on that so i know what there work is like. As for rims i was thinking of having them black chrome or smoked but im not sure really.

 

gonna be sweet mate
