Thinking of getting a XC coupe in need of total resto. Suppose to be complete.
I am a big fan of originality but in this case I'm not sure. Obviously not a GT & not a rally pack. So it is something I could have fun with. Just wondering as it is nothing special whether to restore to original or do a Cobra copy? As I am getting old it would be sold somewhere down the track so which do you think would have the better sale value? Thoughts?

I like the look of your Avatar Coupe more than a Cobra copy.
Cobra copy maybe better resale? Paint it blue, and white vinyl the Cobra design on top. ( or white paint/blue vinyl). Next owner can remove the vinyl ?? Good luck with it |

Go the original style it saves having to answer the question a million times when your out "is it a real one" a mate of mine has an xy gt replica and that is the only question he ever gets asked. But in the end your car your call.

Don't expect to get your money back for non-reversible variations from factory down the track. |

Every XC Coupe made was a rallye pack from factory by default.

Sorry for the delay. Computer woes.
Thanks for all the replies but I missed out on it.
