foxdropper 17,092 Posted October 26, 2022 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 Had the xr2i when i was 17 .Scared the shit out of me so I swapped it for a Renault 5 gallini .Much better but crashed it down Lacock on the bridge . Went from that to xr3i and had the engine took off at a junction near Cirencester ,drunk driver . Bedford van did just nice after that and could get all the dogs in too .

chartpolski 20,393 Posted October 26, 2022 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 I rented an xr2i years ago, to go and stay at a mates hotel in Great Yarmouth for a darts competition. When I returned it they said good job you took out the extra insurance. I asked why ? Some f****r had the spot lights off the front when it was in the hotel car park and I didnt even notice ! ! Just hope it was a lamper ! Cheers. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pesky1972 4,926 Posted October 26, 2022 Report Share Posted October 26, 2022 Pass an xr2 regularly on the way to work. Always shocks me how small the old motors were. Wish I’d bought a dozen of them twenty five years ago, I’d be retired about now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
