We have all read and seen the great stories behind the GT and the T series, but laying in bed last night i asked, where did the XR start, what's it story, what models are there, color ranges, engine specks, do the letters XR stand for anything.
This ford has always been there but not really focused on. I remember the first e series XR8 i seen when (in relative terms ) i was knee high to not knowing the fords to well and fell in love with it, those little bottle top eyes in duplicate looked mean. So what was the first Aussie model ? e series some where and does the XR stand for anything ? why those letters. I also know if correct there were some e series wagons xr6 ? but may be wrong. would be nice to get some documented time order history, build No's etc, I know au2 had the rebel limited edition before s3 with a limited run, but like many never really sat down and put all of the puzzle pieces together. Sure the GT's and T's are great but are there any XR fans out there ? |
