Tail lights are MKIII as they have horizontal ridges. Also has Popular/L wheels and Non-XR3 door and front wing (no black underseal strip). -- Last edit: 2007-03-25 12:04:30

The rear bumper is MKIV, yes. It looks like a late XR3 (not XR3i) because of the high ride height, black window surrounds, solid head rests and partially colour-coded wing mirrors http://www.motorbase.com/uploads/2003/03/24/fs_xr3.jpg
