2 door XR8
Finished work at 4.30 today and seen this current model Ford pull up at the bolt bar across the road . It was a nice metalic blue . On closer inspection i noticed it was an XR8 two door with trader plates . I was wondering if there is a company that converts them or if it was a one off . It really looked as if it was factory built , not like someone had welded up the rear doors .
