1985 XR2 Full Restoration For Sale

I have seen lots of XR2’s over the years, this one is the best example, by a long way. It is an absolute treat to drive and the restoration is truly stunning!

We are award winning restorers and we put every bit of care and attention we could into this build. It comes with a hard back book detailing the cars story.



Manufactured May 1985 the car shows only 72k miles, but with this car the quality of restoration is what makes it special.

We purchased the car earlier this year and have completed a major bare metal restoration. The car had already been thoroughly restored throughout with a reconditioned engine, full chassis and floor restoration, all new suspension and much too much more to list. To be honest it would be much quicker to list the parts which were original, it really is that thorough.

The car comes with a hard back book, the book tells the story of the cars restoration and allows any future custodian to be part of the cars journey.

I will summarise the work below but to be honest this car must be seen to be believed….

EXTERIOR
Original Paris Blue, bare metal respray. All gaps set accurately. New graphics and window edging re finished using correct satin black and pin stripe. Hand and machine polished.
