perhaps you shouldnt come on the thread chatting shit

got any pictures of your old motor?

You'd know it was worth more than a grand then if you had restored one yourself

Brakes are not shit, they are the same as the 3i and s1 turbo

The pedal linkage is shit Easily solved by bracing the bulkhead.

My friend's was a black one with a reg very similar - A570 SFM I think.
I can remember it was pretty quick for a supposed std 115bhp car. Used to paste my 309 GTi from a standing or rolling start - got my own back when we came to bends though

what a prat you dont know jack shit
sorry couldnt be bothered typing out all the differences bud,actually know plenty i think as i owned and restored one,used it as a daily driver for about 5 years,yes there are differences and plenty of motorsport parts but not really required on a car of this power,mind you you do need the fancy suspension to get round the corners as the brakes are so shit,by the way dont really appreciate the name calling

but you said why pay 7k for an xr3i with nice seats im confused now
after you say you know plenty of differences.

be carefull what you say it does backfire
