for those who dont know, this is the XR4i, note the extra pillar on the side windows..



this shell was unique to the XR4i in europe, and mercury mekur XR4 ti in USA

no other 3 door sierra had this shell, no XR4i (2 door V6) in this generation had any other shell...

Well if it is as the picture shows its pretty much correct for a RS cosworth. The wheels are uber rare and bloody expensive, the bodykit also appears to be correct

but as its being advertised as an XR4 2.8V6 with a cosworth body kit, my guess is that its a 3 door base car with cossie kit and XR4i engine...

the guy seems convinced its an XR4i

nice car in reality, but he doesn't seem to have a clue what it is, its definatley a bitza...

FUBAR

replica.


i'd have thought that would have been the biggest indicator...
It's the time that we kill that keeps us alive...

don't think the xr4i had a full rear window...thought it only had small rear and small rear quarter windows......

I might be wrong....

the whole thing is a bitza.....

that shell clould not be an XR4i, he claims its an XR4i built as a cosworth replica... its not..

"the car is a 1984 xr4i 2.8i v6 ," ....no its not!!!!  

Roadkill

Looks like a frankenstein to me.

Phil.....Whats the difference between an XR4i and an XR4x4?


Regarding the Replica.....Not the worst i've seen regardless of what engine is in the bonnet.
