- In this video we went to seen Dan, who owns a freshly restored Mk1 Fiesta XR2 he bought after selling his Porsche. Unlike the Porsche the Fez is set to be a keeper and I don't blame him. Its absolutely MINT and has been treated to a few sensible modifications, which will upset the purists but improve the car in my opinion. 👍

I'm a purist but I think this is a great little XR2.
Wow 🎉😊😊😊😊dieser Fiesta XR2 war mein zweites Auto mit 19 👏👏👏schöne Grüße aus 🇩🇪
Sure takes me back to my old rave days
It's been provided a lot of love
Thanks again fella.
Credit to the builder of the XR2. Terrific job 👏
I always thought that flap on the dashboard was an ashtray! Never knew it was a vent. Every days a school day ! Lovely little xr2, reminds me of my youth 👍
Why oh why didn’t I keep my caspian blue mk1, or any of the Old Ford’s I’ve had over the years (too many to list). Mint example mate, personally I’d put everything back to oem but each to they’re own. Can’t deny how mint it is tho, lovely job 👍
Main thing I remember about my old mk1’s and mk2’s is how much better the cross flow engine was than the cvh in the mk2, I had endless problems with some of my mk2’s but the mk1’s seemed so much more reliable.
Clean car had a lot of XR
‘s over the years having garages and wished i had a few now, id try to get the original parts to store for the future if i were him 😎
Nice, I sold my mk1 in same colour to wheeler dealers a few years back, wish we keeped it now,
Great video Marcus glad to see Dan loves it. My dad was the previous owner of this. The mods were done before he got it but he refitted the suspension, replaced the brakes and alternator as well as the carburettor and some smaller cosmetic things. Good to see it being used and well looked after.
I also owned this car but it was 1991-1995 😊
I'm the current owner as from 2 days ago, it's great to meet previous owners 👌
@@connormcslegger Congratulations 👍🏻 that’s great news. Would love to see the odd pic now and again. Can you post pics on here or something in the future? Regards Peter
I certainly will @PETER
You guys are lucky,! We can't have these in the US . I've seen guys take our Escorts and put turbo's on them . They get down the road ok but I love these car's
Awesome again Marcus great story and good family and great car 🙂👍🏽
Hey Marcus, just want to say a brilliant channel and some lovely cars you have been to see lately. In my opinion these old Fords are like old Minis "Another one on the road and the owner should be free to subtly modify any way they choose". Just glad to see another old car on the road that I can remember from my youth. Keep up the good work 🙂
Better car than a Porsche no, better investment of his money. Absolutely.
Love it mint wish it was mine 🤓☘️👍💯🚗
Me too! 😀
An absolute beautiful example of a mk1 Ford fiesta xr2 Marcus
It’s gotta be one of the very best in existence Wayne! 👍
Agreed fully Marcus
I had one the same car god do I miss it
Beautiful car, tastefully modded. I love it!
I have the same issue keeping cars, a year or a year and a half and they are gone, i'm trying to change that with mi mk1 fiesta, i want to enjoy it a bit more, keep improving it and have the classic i always wanted.
I owned this car 1991-1995 👍🏻😊
The minute you opened the door and filmed the interior I smelt this weird Vanilla Magic tree in my brain... Weird how visual effects can trigger smells !!!
And vice versa mate, mad what evokes memories, I still got 3 or 4 cassettes from yrs ago and got nothing to play them on, I know once I play them I'll be back in my old cav gsi, Sri or xr3i with my jbl amp/kenwood 7x10 ....kenwood mask lol, hang on to them memories mate
Uau! - From Brazil
Lovely car 😮👌
Absolutely fantastic. I hate to be 'that guy', but it really needs some correct Charles Wright font 'plates! 😂
😀😀😀
Amazing Mk1. My Fiesta obsession begun with a Mk1 XR2 in Sunburst red. Get him along to Fiesta123 Bert!
Defo need to get Dan and the XR2 to Herbies. Inbox me with the date of the next one mate (if it’s been set yet) 👍
The roof spoiler was part of the Ford body kit it also came with body skirts as optional extras . I had them on my mine it was sunburst red the same Was Absolutely mint ! my biggest ever regret was selling it 😢
I had two of those, one with a lovely Burton built 1660 on twin 40's, i miss that car 😢
it's a keeper - lets raffle it
Ìm certainly glad they did 😂
What a beautiful example of a mk1 xr2 theres one the same colour on mathewsons classic car auctions totally original I bet it goes for good money 👍
A mint XR2 like this is defo worth a few quid mate! 👍
What a beautifully restored XR2. Although the interior isn't period correct, it's perfect and looks standard. I can't get over how nice this car looks. Probably the best I have seen on your channel!
As I watched when he opened the doors and I saw those extra clocks, I though 'Oh no'. Later when he said he was going to remove them, I thought 'It will be perfect!'
Used to have an old fella who live a few doors from me who had a black one of these. He bought it new. Every time I came out of the house he was polishing it.
Oh, how I admired that car!
It is probably the mintest car that iv featured by smear mate! 👍
Lovely xr2 I've got a black unrestored one owned ot 30 years 66000 miles I think I need to get it used this year
What a beauty and much more interesting than a Porsche 👌
Absolutely stunning
The xr3 w reg i drove disintegrated and that was german times foil one first off the production line
Great video Marcus
Thank you Marcus definitely the best XR2 I've seen ever and i grew up with cars like this I'm 56 year old hi cat.
Defo the best one iv seen too mate. Cat says hi. 👍
Similar to me this guy
I’ve owned well over 60 cars mainly fords . Had xr3s , xr2’s, rs turbos, escort cosworths, saff cosworths, mk1 and mk2 escorts etc. But last year I sold my mk1 as I wanted to itch the Porsche scratch . Bought a cayman S last July . Best car I’ve ever owned - but I still needed my Ford fix so as well as the cayman I’m restoring a mk2 Rs2000 ! Can’t get them out of the blood !
Dan was telling me how capable and fun his Cayman was👍 I wouldn’t want to experience such a car because I may not want to drive old banger Fords again afterwards! 😀
@@marcushayesford I thought that mate but it seems once the blue oval is in the blood you can’t get rid of it 😁😂
£300 for a radio would have been very expensive back then. My dad earned £145 a week as a long distance lorry driver back in 1981 (think that was w plate) as a comparison. Beauty of a car though. Keep em coming Marcus!
Cool little XR2 😎 ya don't find many as clean as that one mate! Newcastle on Tyne reg'd plate!
Marcus , I have learned something about you today - you dont know Brands hatch GP track lol - great Video though!!
My dad had one of these must of been 30y ago, and his one back then was not as tidy as this one! Absolutely pristine!
It was like a brand new car mate! 👍
I absolutely love this car, it would be a dream car for me, excellent example, bet it’s worth a few bob too. Great video Marcus
Defo worth a few bob mate but someone has spent a fortune restoring it. 👍
Stunning little car 👌 in the best colour
"DECCALS" ?! 😂😂😂
Absolutely stunning example 👍
👍👍👍
Yes Dan!! Amazing car, well deserved
👍👍👍
Lovely. 👍
Lovely xr2 take that ram air filter off before it catches fire.
i own a mk1 and i can tell you after owning a porsche it gets 100 times more attention than any supercar ever will 😜😜😜😜
Wicked video mate
Thanks mate! 👍
Beautiful XR2 but your dads blue Escort is still my favourite! My Grandad had a Ford Orion exactly the same colour and its still my all time best car
The Mk3 might be for sale soon. . . .
@@marcushayesford Haha I couldn't afford such a beautiful car! But easy to work on classics are becoming so rare
Beautiful car 😍
Defo mate! 👍
That's a SeriesX roof spoiler Marcus, I have an Austrian one on mine, what a fantastic example after all those years...love it! 👌
If you noticed the two spoke steering wheel for the XR2 but a XR3 would have a three spoke wheel something you wouldn't see on modern cars these days
👍👍👍
The XR3 & early XR3i did have a 2 spoke steering wheels as did the XR4i. It was a bit of a Ford thing at the time.
@@SB-vb8ch I notice on a different car a day or two later I think at the time it was a interesting fact and I still think it was a fair comment
👏 😏
I love mrk 1 fiesta xr2s
Theyr so cool!! 👍
Awesome that xr2 mate
Defo mate! 👍
What a beauty ❤
Defo mate! 👍
In the exact colour I'd have very nice 😀🇬🇧👍
I see it's up for raffle how come your getting rid of it mate.
Once again an absolute eggtastic 😂 video 👍 .
haha! 😀 Thanks mate! 👍 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚
Because it’s what’s in you’re ❤️
INT ERIOR FOR A DRUG DEALER
Awesome car
Defo mate! 👍
Beaut mate ❤❤❤
👍👍👍
That is mint 🤌👏
(🇨🇵) La Fiesta Mk1 est une perle rare,
(surtout xr2) 👍 une Porsche est banale, il suffit de voir rien rien que sur youtube notamment, pour s'en rendre compte..
Did you make the music for the Xr2 walk around Marcus?
No I decided recently to start using other peoples music in my videos mate. They do a much better job of making music than I ever could. 😀
Nice wouldn’t sell my series 1 escort rs turbo for any money
Can’t understand why someone goes to the trouble of doing a beautiful job on a classic & spoils it with a non standard interior & that crappy top spoiler, tacky, sunroof models are a no-no as well 😢
When he was listing his old cars, you were wishing for some Ford in the list weren't you Marcus? 😂
Mark 5 rs2000 front seats
Thanks for the info mate! 👍 Did they come with the fishnet headrests then?? Or have these been added?? 👍
Didn't the Mk3 Fiesta RS1800 have similar seats too? Been a long time since I've seen one though to be honest!
Nice amazing xr2i my friend has one but has a vw block and hyabusa motor bike head :)
its awesome, but i guess he was cleaning for several hours after you left
It was still looking freeesh after the joyride mate! 👍
Ok till it rains fords made out tin foil
Awesome xr2 m8 whatta lil gem of a lil pocket rocket nice 1 marcus n kat
Had loads of mk1 xr2,s back in the day. Hindsight 🥲🥲
Hindsight is a wonderful thing! 🙁
