That's an excellent job you've done there,it looks utterly mint...and I'm totally on the same page with the modifications you've made to it.They are improvements,and will make the car much more of a treat to drive without losing the 80's XR3-ness of the car as a whole. Mullet-tastic,Sir. Another car saved and looking better than new.

Thanks mate!This really is stunning.
It’s my second favourite on Readers Cars.
The V8 Aston Martin pips it as it’s the car I would have a poster of when I was a kid.
Looks exactly the same as the ‘3i I had years ago, only difference I can see is mine had solid head rests iirc.
Like I said before I am very jealous of this car, it’s gorgeous.

That looks Fantastic. 
I loved mine. It was my second car at 18 in 1985
It was a toss up between a large 3 bedroom house for £11,500
or the XR3 for £4,100.....It wasnt a tough choice at 18

You've done a fantastic job restoring that OP and like the subtle mods. Great memories of these cars as my dad had a string of them when I was a nipper. I remember one A reg black one with a lower lip to the front fitted that absolutely flew. Must have been modded.
Have today though, think we need a thread on the Audi also on your drive - is that an S2?
