- In this video went to meet Doug who has been into XR2 Fiestas for over 25 years! 👍
His current Mk2 Fiesta XR2 is probably the only bright orange one in the world! (anoraks look away now!! 😃) It was in a state when he first bought it but it now looks very clean AND has a built 1600 CVH in the bay running on 'Ferrari carbs' 🤔

DOUG's INSTA: @orange_xr2 - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
I don't know if it's just being sentimental or nostalgia but I absolutely love the look of the XR2. All the 80s performance Fords just look so cool. Doug's XR2 looks great in the Capri orange. Who cares about the pedantic purists, keep it as it is.
this is nostagia for me, im now 50 but back in the day i owned 2 xr2,s 2 xr3i,s and an s1 rs turbo. if only i still had them all.
Superb car and a cool guy looks great in orange and like he said can always be painted white if the values sky rocket even more .
Nice vid mate, bit mad how the last 3 letters on the reg are so similar to the red one he wrote off!
Love the content Marcus.👍
I owned two XR2s in the 90s loved them both. Second one was nicked and burnt out unfortunately. 😞
Awesome 👍🏽🙂 great story and cool car 😀👍🏽🤙
Great XR2 and the number plate is nearly the same as his old red one, how funny!
My mate use to own a metallic grey one back in the day with purple piping in the bumpers!!
Thank you Doug for sharing your awesome Ford with Marcus & Cat another great episode
Thanks for watching mate! 👍
So much better to look at, and probably drive than most Germanic point and shoot gearboxes of nowadays, boring. A proper classic😎.
Thanks for some great content👍🏽
Love that Car
Would be interesting to know the full spec of the engine, mine makes a bit more power but doesn’t idle as smoothly as this one.
Love it mate 👌🏼
👍

Doug is a proper cool bloke. Thanks for watching mate! 👍
My brother used to rag my old lady's one of these, red one n F reg too lol never skipped a beat either. Good cars man. 👍🏻

I had a few bk in the day.. had a black xr2 . 1.6 . 4 branch manifold. K&n filter.. didn't do to much too.. then bought a red one.. that had 1.6 with twin 40s k&n filters . 4 branch manifold.. tsw wheels . 40mm springs.. bumpers & kit colour coded. Had to sell and new owner after a month wrote it off was gutted.. bought a 1.6 blue xr2. Standard.. built myself.. fitted 4 branch manifold. Twin 40s . Kent cams.. ported & polished. Few mil skimmed extra off head. K&n filters. Pepperpot wheels. Think was scorpion exhaust.. rs seats. Racing clutch can't think of make.. springs unsure.. absolutely loved it.. sold few years later and new owner had it skittled it absolute mangled.. them days were amazing but long gone
I wish I bought one of these before the prices went crazy mate! 👍
A family member had one in black nice cars back in the day they were used for ram raids
.
Dan from my lat video said his Mk1 Fiesta he had when he was 16 was stolen and used for a ram raid! 🙁
@MARCUS HAYES not sure how true it is but they were the best for it because the used to bounce over kerbs into shop windows an remember someone saying it. alot were written off from being rolled too.
Nce xr2 got 1 .y self rosso red 88
B123rdh, i wonder how she's doing now x
Probably been a can of pop twice at least already
Nice MK2, another one for Fiesta123 👍👍
Defo mate! 👍 Ill message Doug now. 👍
👍
👍
I had a new xr2 in 1988 e reg loved it too butt
Thats awesome that you had one new mate! 👍
Hi there Marcus and your beautiful girlfriend Cat 🐈⬛, lovin that wee XR2 Fiesta, but I really love the patina in the spots 😊, it just hits the right spots, I was a bit unsure of the Vista Orange 🍊 but it’s definitely grown on me, niiiiiiiiiiice.
Ps…….change the oil every 3k,i know i would if it was mine, oil is cheap compared to an engine 😊
Pps….. I remember I had a Vista Orange MK3 Granada and the rear chassis literally fell out, 😡 grrrrr
The orange looks really cool against the black XR2 kit etc. Defo wise to change the oil regularly on these old Fords! 👍
At first I thought Doug was John McGuinness.
🤔
Restored one in mid 2010 Red exactly the same was gonna drop a rs turbo engine into lent it to my brother and he let the ratbags Rob it gutted 😠😠..
🙁
What a sick motor and a cool dude
Defo mate! 👍
@@marcushayesford quality content mate, top geeza.
