What was it, 105 Bhp I think.

LOL, I had a succession of Orion 1.6i Ghias which had the same engine as the XR3i and like you thought they were quick. Then, about 6 months ago, I actually got to drive one again around the block. No power steering, crap brakes and didnt seem anywhere near as quick as I remembered. The exhaust still made a great 'farting' noise though!, maybe thats why you felt at home mate
