SUMMARY
From 34 years with its first owner and having covered just 31,500 miles, this pre-injection XR3 remains in lovely condition.
DESCRIPTION
- No one could do 'go-faster' quite like Ford and, at its unveiling in August 1980, the XR3 represented a master class in addenda-driven design
- The whale-tail spoiler and the distinctive cloverleaf alloy wheels both became instant classics
- 1.6-litre, four-cylinder, CVH unit offered 86bhp and 0-60 in 8.5 seconds (40 years ago)
- Unrestored and basically original, this early car is finished in Sunburst Red with a factory sunroof
- We understand that it was enjoyed by its first owner for 34 years
- Very low 31,500 miles believed to be correct with plenty of history and previous MOTs
- Original grey interior showing very little wear and no cracks in the dashboard
- If you missed your chance to own one when it was the world's most hallowed Hot Hatch, don't let this one get away
