Here is my black xr2i 8v iv owned it just over a year. i bought it from a couple who had owned it from new when i got it it had 55,000 miles on the clock only just done 60,000 now.

pics when i got her.








And pics after iv put my own touches to it, full rs turbo interior, lowered 35mm on spax springs and gmax shocks, ashley exhaust system, and its had a different boot put on no more rust hole, oh and an angry bird cuddley toy of corse lol.

looks really clean, nice one, best colour too

[jonyb4]

thats stunning i like it!

any plans for the engine?

[choaky]

Yh got a few things in mind for it but im keeping it looking as it is, im lovng my 50p style wheels so many people ditch them for being ugly but they have grown on me and i recken they suit the car and stop it looking chavvy, the amber indicators are staying too. The engine will be given a four branch manifold, k&n and posiblely a cam and a propper tune up.

[fiestarsturboblack]

very nice looking car mate, put a turbo steering wheel in as it will make the inside look nicer , wont b long b4 u decide to turbo it

[TIL13R]

Reminds me of my Xr when 1 st got it...

[Fraggle]

Thats lovely fella, black and ambers ftw

[jonyb4]

loving the plans!

[Michael!]

black and ambers <3

you'll turbo it in no time

[TIL13R]

I think mine was around 130bhp n/a when i did the mods to it....

Port and polished head,
4-1 manifold,
Superchip,
K&N,

Also would advise fitting S2 gearbox and totally transformed the car also...

[choaky]

Im loving my amber indicators too (gingercators) their not going anywhere! I dont do chavvy and im not doing any unnessisary mods either, its staying original looking, with focused mods to improve power, handling and braking

[jonyb4]

amen to that

[choaky]

Small update. Shes off the road now currently out of mot and needing a bit of work, new lower arms, steering rack (its a lil sloppy), wheel bearings, gearbox, clutch, tyres, small patch of welding on the sill, rocker cover gasket and an mot. Anoyingly iv spent all my wages on bike gear as iv got an old 600 to hack about on while the fez is getting some love, so i needed a new jacket and had a lump of debt to clear so roll on nxt payday and hopefully i can blow most of my wage on the fez

[Michael!]

roll on nxt payday and hopefully i can blow most of my wage on the fez

story of my life...

good luck!

[jonyb4]

haha what a reply

that's a big list mate, whats wrong with the gearbox?

[choaky]

Driveshaft oil seals are leaking and diff bearings going. i picked up another box for 40 quid yh its a bit of a list but its all wear and tear stuff most of its knackered up due to being stood up for four years i exspect. Its worth spending money on it tho i love it, its a laugh to drive, it looks the dogs dangleys (even if i do say so myself! ) and sounds awsum! Even my gf loves driving it. I cant believe i actually put it on ebay, so glad i took it off

[jonyb4]

naughty man! delete your ebay account now!

[choaky]

lol i had quite alot of interest in it, i even had a guy try and con me! (long story) and had a stoned chive call me asking about it too, that made me worry about [ERRR] dick might end up with it and [ERRR] they'd do to it! (im sad i know lol) so i swiftly took it off and decided to keep it and hopefully get it propperly minty eventually.

[jonyb4]

Nah I know, nothing wrong wanting what's best for it isi?

[choaky]

Started waxoiling the old girl yesterday iv done the rear arches rear panel and boot floor altho i think i got just as much on me as i did on the car lol im amazed how solid she is only minor scabby patches where the origanal sealer had lifted but no holes what so ever at the back, shes going in for mot on weds i know the front of the passenger sill needs a plate so il finish wax oiling when shes got a ticket, also il do it at work on a ramp rather than crawling around in the dirt lol

[fiestarsturboblack]

Looking gd mate. U keeping her standard or u guna play with it??

[Rs Adz]

this reminds me so much of my old one good luck with it looks really clean more pics

[choaky]

Shes already had a few mods like the rst interior, ashley exhaust, lowered 35mm im not changing anything else looks wise, but she will be getting a few engine tweeks but no turbo transplant shes staying n/a and yh she is tidy its in for mot at the mo so we will see just how solid she is :-/ should be ok i only know of one small patch on the edge of the passenger side sill

[choaky]

The fez failed its mot on a pair of antirollbar drop links and a rear wheel cylinder that was all the patch of welding needed on the very edge of the sill was'nt failable but il get it done soon anyway no one likes a holey car lol

[choaky]

The 2i is now taxed, moted and insured and im a happy chappy once more! Nxt on the to do list is get a clutch kit and get my replacement gearbox fited.

[jonyb4]

good stuff, its such a tidy 2i

[Spunkymonkey]

Love it!!
Such a tidy xr!!!!!

[choaky]

For sale 10 months mot 4 months tax needs the gearbox replacing (i have a gearbox to go in it) still driveable just about. Very tidy as you can see from the pics. 62,000 miles £850 ono car is in tiverton devon collection only.

[jonyb4]

seriously? what a bargain shame its gotta go though!

GLWS

[choaky]

You recken thats too cheap then??

[jonyb4]

well i dont wanna s**t on someones plans, but look round on ebay atleast, most fine examples fetch around £1000-£1500

[choaky]

Nah they dont mate, most of them get relisted time and time again mine needs that gearbox doing and has light rust in the normal patch near the filler cap and a bit on the scuttle the arches are very good tho. Iv had no interest on here yet.

[choaky]

Anybody want this???? £850 10 months mot 4 months tax gearbox is noisey but still driveable, comes with a spare gearbox and i have all the origanal parts.

[choaky]

I cant believe no one has shown any interest in my fez shame, that means il be keeping her then she must be my destiny i cant seam to shift her on! And even when someone does finally show interest i change my mind lol. I think we are ment to stick together

[Michael!]

If I was closer - A LOT closer haha, I'd have had this off you in a heartbeat
