Default XR3 Build numbers.

Just after a bit of information on the XR3. How many were built and did they only make them on X and Y plate. I really fancy getting one but need to save up a bit first. Can someone give me a price guide from project, runner needing work to mint.

Im not sure how many were actually made.

But it may be worth a look at the web site, howmanyleft.com

All mk3 escorts are getting quite rare now.

Cheers for reply Al , i wasnt trying to say it was not a reasonable price. Its just hard to tell condition off a few photos and us living so far apart its not like i can pop round for a quick look. I am genuinely interested if you dont get rid in the next month or so. If you can send me some more photos and let me know if its HPI clear that would be great.
