![PROJECT CARS, Barn Finds & Broncos at Ford Nationals 2024! [PART 2]](/img/1.gif)
Perhaps offer the spares you want to scrap to the owners club. As you know with older cars it’s the silly things you can’t find and a bit of goodwill with the club would go a long way when you are looking for unobtanium
I would rather use a genuine second hand part,the new reproduction stuff just isn't as good
I was working for Ford of Europe in 1990 and Ford had a special offer on these - free insurance for the first year ! Can you imagine we were all 21 years old and this was like the gift of gifts ! We also had the employee discount on top of that. All my mates bought them new. I had a 2.8i Capri and the time, so the XR2i were known as 'toy cars'... the Capri being a proper man's car ha ha ha :) Anyway, they were great.
I remember.
Same here davyboy my mum used to work at Ford in Basildon and I had the employee discount and a years free insurance, small world, kind regards to you and take care Mark from Billericay 😃👍
Ah but remember the insurance is nothing like the young ones pay just now , I had ren 5 gt turbo for £300 per year . Never liked the fiesta xr2i but loved escort r/s turbo
I bought a Fiesta 1.6 s with free insurance in 1990 happy days !
I remember mine D667SKA (from new)- My old dad had a capri AAO433J (from new)
You can tell Chris hates old fords he just goes along for Rob's sake 🙄 🤣
I’d give the new owner the option of having the spares instead of binning them…seems a waste
Yep considering he used his own time and money to find them
Rob & Chris, those classic words by most people: “I was going to do a nut & bolt restoration”……they just don’t understand how much work goes into doing exactly that!!! Another classic chaps!!!!
This is when cars were cars easy to work on now you have computers with wheels , lovely motor great find 👍👍👍
I had an H registered one of these in white and suffer from OCD. Used to clean under the spare wheel area with a toothbrush. No food, drinks allowed in car and it was kept in garage if it rained. We had to take the bus.Sold it for more than I paid for it. Used to give the teenagers in their souped up Vauxhall Nova's a run for their money.
Those old starter motors and alternators are worth a pretty penny on ebay because people like to have original parts!!!
Laguna splitter a must have accessory back in the day 😁
100 percent
You boys need to be on tv even though no one watches tv😂 best channel going, were you ever into 205 gti,s a think an extra to the channel would be the built up cars, especially the 2 fiestas drivin round the country roads so we could hear the old school motors sounds again 👍
Yet again your lack of greed is a joy to behold! A heck of a find, a heck of a car and a heck of a video…..excellent.
Really can't see the attraction myself. But nice to pass it on to someone who will love it.
Sell it for 4k and give chris a bonus, worth that all day given how solid it is
Your playing a dangerous game with that battery pack and fuel 😳😳
That engine sounds like a mouse chewing a bit of paper😀🐁🐁
Chris face 😂thought he got away with you buying the turbo 😂 loving the chanel
dipped in for this Rob .. brilliant.
Instead of scrapping the alternators and starter motors, shouldn't you consider that some of your subscribers could perhaps make good use of them?
Scrapping em surely means weighing them in for the copper.
@@mikej557 instead of the few pence he will get in scrap, he could give them to subscribers that might need them. Apart from that, they are worth more as used parts than scrap, but obviously they don't need the money, so it doesn't matter to them.
I used to buy motorcraft parts for my Fiestas and Escorts takes me back. Cars were so much simpler to work on back then. Good you got it running and nice project for someone.
Woke up 3 am after a skinful at dinner time, Normal telly a waste of time your content always worth watching. Keep it up guys.
The highlight of my week Sunday’s and Wednesdays👍 I wish you had more time to do more videos, I know you tried 👍🙏
13:08 is there no risk of a spark when you're connecting to the jump pack, next to that big open jug of petrol??
You can throw a lit cigarette on petrol…it does nothing
It's worth keeping the old parts to have reconditioned, retaining the original look.
In 1990 I wanted to upgrade from my 1987 XR2 in red to the newer 1990 XR2i model but my finances would not stretch by a few hundred pounds. I settled for a Vauxhall Nova 1.4SR instead. That was a bit of a mistake and to add insult to injury Ford discounted the XR2i price by about £500 two weeks after I bought the Nova. I really like Ford hot hatches of this era.
19:58 Rob went all the way around the world in 8 seconds!!
11.48 Laguna front splitters was fitted to everything back on the day. Got one in the garage too. God knows what I’m going to fit it to ?🤷🏻 great video guys 👍
Good morning Rob and Chris, great find , I remember them when I was younger. Someone is going to get a nice project. Thank you for taking the time to upload another video. Ged.
Rob your taking me back in time with all those parts. I remember everything, 1.6 cvh . I can still hear the techno and the 6x9 on the parcel shel and the amp 👍
Omg I had the gun metal grey one back in the day XR2i Think I paid no more than £500 for it had it when I was about 18 -19 year old I wish I never sold it now bring back so many memories first time I done over 110 mph in Mexico, of course lol few cruises to the seaside ect love it
When I was at college we had a pre-launch XR2i donated by Ford with a prototype Zetec engine fitted which the later 1.8 versions came with. Still love the sound of a CVH though 😊
Lovely job Rob and Chris. 😊
What a treat for a Sunday! Thanks guys. Being around 20 at the time I knew two people my age who had the 1.4S as it was easier on the Insurance, which despite inflation was still a lot back then!
Nice vid again guys, great find. Rob, with those lovely teeth and all you should audition for the Chippendale's mate😁
Fantastic find Rob, someone will enjoy that project , absolutely well done yet again.
Amazing find guys, and good rolling restoration indeed. Have a great week
I had an 86 escort with that same engine. Fun watching you rebuild the interior Rob you really love those cars thank you gentlemen
86 escort would have been mfi 👍
Hi Rob and Chris, great find and great purchase. Will be a fantastic project for someone. Alex.
Great video. So close to 300k subscribers. Well,deserved. Thanks chaps👍👍
It’ll be interesting to see Rob rebuilding this one and seeing him reliving his youth, nice one Rob, ps if you’d brought in an 80 year old lorry you might have seen Chris getting excited 😊
Fantastic find chaps hope you are well, I had one of these I purchased new in August 1990 on a H plate it was so much fun to drive, if I remember rightly the seat fabric was called Zolda which was a hard wearing crushed velour, enough of my waffle for now kind regards Mark from Billericay 😃😃👍👍
Great as it is to see these old "classics" it doesn't half make me feel old, I was a yts trainee at a ford dealership when these first came out at least it's with someone who's going to mint it, greet video as always
That's a very noice nointeen nointy XR2i lol. Great find and looking forward to seeing this project. All the best from up north in Yorkshire 👍
Medway dialect 😅
The fuel and the jump pack 😮 had me worried there 😂😂❤
Nice one lads. Can't believe how much these are worth these days, like the old Nova SR that you could buy for £500 20+ years ago.. Should've kept loads of cars I've sold 😂
What a car. If only I had the time and space. I’d love to have seen you put it through your classic auction. Great video as always
A bit like buses, you wait for one and. . . . . It does prove that there are still some around that are not rot boxes. I think the young people whose era this was will be very happy to own this one and at a good price. I hope whoever buys it will get it resprayed straight away and take it to some shows because it deserves to be shown as a survivor. I think you have done the right thing with this car Rob you don't have the time as a company to do a full restoration so selling it on as a run and drive is wise. Take care Rob and Chris and thanks for the video. 👍👍
Lovely little car. I bought my first classic late last year: 1993 Corvette 40th Anniversary Edition in Ruby Red interior and exterior that had 19,300 original, documented miles! I’m the third owner, and it’s so much fun to drive!
wow what a cheap little fast ford I'm sure that will fly out the door especially as a restoration project can't wait to see what's next on the channel keep them coming guys 💯💯💯👍👍👍👍
Lovely little motor, had a black Xr2 from new, loved it. CVH engine, worked on so many, when I was a Ford mechanic.
Great trip down memory lane thanks Guys hopefully it sells sure someone will love to restore 👍
Another lovely fast ford from the past 👌 you will have to get some more furry dice for it rob this will be a little belter when it's done 😊take care and stay lucky and healthy looking forward to Wednesday's video 📹 already 😊❤
i must be getting old ...i found the shed in the garden way more interesting than the car!!!!! not for me im more the 1600e or lotus cortina mk1 escort as there my age group !! did like that shed though........😂😂😂
I had one the exact same colour & year wish I'd kept it now. Be worth a few quid when its finished. Nice one Lads 👍
Love your reactions to finding that car like all your Christmas at once
Very nice barn find gents.This is a very desirable and scarce car.Hope you sell it very soon.
Don’t bin anything until you offer it on the Ford groups, yes you can get reman but most want genuine parts
Hello Rob and Chris,it's hard to find a car that solid nowadays,and original.that moment it starts Rob is very happy lol.with a respray it will be a nice motor.
Wow that is cheap guy's I'd absolutely love it I really would but funds are tight but thank you for the video 👌👌👌
Great find guys love it 👍
Hello both, very interesting to see you get this car running and interior re-fitted. What a great project car for someone. Best wishes from Lincolnshire
Great video lads, reminded me of when I had a XR2i in white with the pepper pot wheels.👍
Great find, very tidy motor for an easy project.👍🇬🇧😎
Another fab video guys 👌
The Renault Laguna splitter. The boy racers dream. I had one back in the day!!
Another quality video from you guys the way your buying cars there be none left for anybody else😂
Great old classic, really nice in white as well
Great content gents, loving the Old Ford stuff! 😎 👌🏻
i think you should have stuffed it through an MOT. That would have increased your bottom line. Nice video. Thanks
Too right
I can perfectly understand that smile on your face, Rob.
I feel the same when people are comming around in those old beauties. I love old and fast Fords, but absolutely not old VW's.
Fiesta's and Escorts are real cars. I had an Escort with a 130 hp engine. It showed it's rearwheels to a BMW. He couldn't believe that a Ford 1,6 could do that. I don't know who did the tune-up on it, but it was pure fun to drive.
Have fun with that Fiesta, and make some good money too. That's what it's all ut.about.
And I'm sure, that you guys will make that car nothing less than perfect.
Rare and perfect.
Remember that fantastic Ford Fiesta XR2i commercial, 105Horse, 1 Cat, No Bull.. why doesn't ford still do ads like that, pure brilliance, that was for the 16v version 1991 onwards 😊
I some times wonder about fords future ..
Great car. Nice project for someone. Still like the old Ford cars. Had two MK1 Fiestas and always liked them even with the 1100cc engine one in yellow and one in blue. Nice you got to buy this and show us. Thanks. 😀👍👍👍
Excellent find and a great video 😊👍
Another classic that hopefully will make it back to concourse condition. Great job guys.
I remember the fog lights were a favourite for getting nicked.
What a peach takes me back to my apprenticeship days blinding little cars I had a black xr2i and loved it ❤
Never worth £6000 at auction. Very clean original examples with 70-80k miles are £7000. £3000 does seem like a reasonable price though.
Love XR2's had three in the 80's , just wish I had one of them now.
Really enjoyable video, gents. Thank you. She’s worth every penny at £3K, imo.
Sat for that long, a bit of love and attention fired back to life.Gives you a smile.
Another very very nice on Rob! 👍🚘
This will make a superb project for someone and with plenty left in it for them👍👍👍
Just listening to Diana Ross chain reaction looking at the paintwork on the 2 i
Great Video lads as always you always do a fantastic job on your projects 👍
Great buy for someone to restore. Great video both. 👍👍👍👍
Nice to see you able to work outside for few months (fingers crossed) Rob
Compound valve hemispherical head=CVH. Never forgot that from my days when i worked in the motor industry.
Great little car , remember me ver these my era , no wonder you enjoyed it rob , cheap cheap ! Good luck 👍👍
Back in the day they were very "nickable". A couple of the staff at the company I ran both had two nicked.
Some years before that I had an Orion Ghia Injection - basically an XR3i with a boot, a real sleeper of a car - 4 door with XR3i performance. One of the best cars I've ever had.
A cracking project boys. Well done....👍
I had a f reg xr2 when I was younger loved the little car it was immaculate gutted I sold for about £300 back then
I was hoping Chris would do a full repaint on this. It's begging for one. Come on Chris 😊😊
Local car to you Rob and Chris, having a Brighton Registration. Will make a great project for someone.
Good call - best bought by someone who can do a good respray "in his own time". Might have been different of you had your own full spray capability but the time needed for a respray would still be a major cost to any professional operation.
My dad used too repair Ford cars ,, I remember a Ford escord he had ... he used too say Ford is a acronym fix or repair daily ,, all in all cars like these are a rare find and awsome classic
Like the reflection on the 08 beamer to the 98 ford..they sure were the days. 💯😎👍
For me it has to be the Ford Fiesta Mark 1 XR2 I'd wished I owned one ford got it spot on but enjoyed your video on the Mark 3 Fiesta XR2 Chris and Rob keep the videos coming there getting better 👍👍
What a find Rob, love a pocket rocket 👍👍
It's a shame that Mr khan doesn't share your enthusiasm for rolling restorations
A great little video 👍
Halo and good evening Yes what a great show well done guys,thank you ,
nice one guy's bring back a lot of good memories 👍
Ah the memoires of my old 1990 Xr2i in white, my first proper hot hatch, ended up being scrapped due to rust, wish I had kept it now!!
