I'd have it, put the original tail lenses back on though, but that's about it.

How much would we have to spend to get one and then mod it to make it like that? Only 43Kays too! :

Very true young Daniel, but that XR is an original, lovingly sculpted by a caring and devoted owner.

Maybe it's true, I'm more for bling than go! I'm so confused!

Interesting colour too. Orange. Not sure I've seen an Orange AU before.

Is it a real XR6? the cluster (what I could make out) looked a little different.

I noticed the cluster as well, but only that it seemed to have been painted orange. Didn't like that to be honest, but the rest is nice.

I wonder what it looks like under the bonnet? Imagine if it was all orange!

I'll look at it again. *Looks*

I see what you mean Bucky. Looks like a standard dash! Did the XR's have a light in the spoiler also, or not? I was looking for ways of trying to work out if it's a fake or not.

If it was original, would it be worth more than 17K?

I agree with you Buckie, the cluster looks like a low series one.

Good looking car, definately not an XR. The dash is low series by the look of it. Keep dreaming Simon.

I first looked at it and thought - now that's a very faded shade of Venom Red. I wouldn't bother thinking about it - here's why:
