Quite why anyone would choose one over an RS im not sure? I never rated XR3is.
If your gonna do it, XR-poo it
Really? They are 105bhp Standard? What's a 1.4 corsa 80-85?
It's not a case of choosing it over a RST at all.

90bhp. Corsa is slightly lighter I think.
XR3i is a previous generation of cars, redtop era. 99.9999% of XR3is will ahve been trhashed to within an inch of their life.
It was the cheaper alternative to the Astra GTE. But during a late night jaunt, I went past one, without issue.
But that was driven by a ned so probably knackard. But I never found them impressive really. Not bad handling little cars though.
