4k for this in this state even if it is a 1 owner!

When you could get this for the same price

That 1st one must be a joke surely? Way too expensive.

That's about what i thought. The first one should take the number 7 out of the price and he would be about right.
He says he's in no hurry to sell it which is a good job cause he ain't fucking going to at that price.

Just made a cheeky offer (£25), if it's accepted anyone who wants any XR2 parts can come and help themselves just to get the skip off my drive.

You would be surprised, they are on the up fast, not many left now. this one below sold recently in a bad way for over £900

I had a look on ebay the other day, gotta say I was surprised as to what 80s fords in general are going for now, loads of xr3i's advertised for £3-4k and the same for sierras, capri's seem to be fetching good money too.

Tho that's the asking prices not selling prices, I have a few email / eBay alerts set up and it seems to be the same cars forsale for years at the same prices.
