    Minting up my XR2!

    Hi Folks, just thought I would show you some up to date pics of my XR2.

    The weekend had me pull her out of the garage and as you can see from
    the pics I have a few interior bits on the roof whilst I cleaned and
    hoovered all debris from inside her, then I sprayed yet more waxoyl into
    all the box sections and inner sill structures, door A-posts etc.





    The floors show all the original seam sealer and absolutely no rust.

    THis is the back section where the seat belt anchors.


    This bit is notrious for rust where the rear floor meets the rear bulkhead
    under the back seat area.


    This is the front passenger footwell, where the floor meets the inner sill
    and bottom of A-post area, another fave rust spot. The marks are just dirt
    on the sealer and not rust. I scutinised every inch of floor and from
    underneath too. The floors are like new, not a single rust spot or surface
    rust anywhere. I do have a secret though as to why they are like this! 8)

    To the left of the pic you can see the yellowy waxoyl lurking in the door pillar base.



    My next Love!

            Stunning car, they don't come cleaner than that.

            I had one in the same colour for a couple of years ago.
            Sometimes i stil regret selling it. It was a great car.

              Very, VERY nice. As observed by Mogsmex, not many left now...especially in that kind of condition.

                that is lovely and clean
                Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak
