Xr2i's were never any good when they were new & the seats in them are some of the most un-supporting seats ever !

They weren't that bad. lol
Turbo then rs1800 if I had the choice.

They were pretty bad mate. I remember back in about 1992 when autocar tested the valver against the rs1800 - valver was a lot lot better.

If we were only sticking to fords i'd make the same choice as you.
