i'm not real familiar with series 1...but looks good to me - but i think those style wheels only work when huge: like 19's or 20's...those rims look bad

S1 rear bar, S2/3 Tailights, S1/2 side markers and S2/3 Boot garnish. I'd say you are right without looking at the interior or front end.
EDIT: Also S2/3 wing

It's a Tickford rear bar. The car hasn't got the matching skirts.
Series II I'm guessing.

Yep, Series II by the look of it - but it has what looks like an aftermarket rear bar - it isn't Series I rear bar but looks similar.
Easy enough to check whether it's genuine or not. It looks a bit dodgy though with the mismatched body bits. |

Either way, maybe he should've got some personalised plates to go with it - SHONKY

I will bet it is a series 2 Futura.
Chrome strips in the body molds are not XR, am I right?

Car is definately an XR. May have had a hit up the back and when it was repaired they found a S1 bar to replace it with. S2 rear bars had the cut out for the towbar.

I believe some did get the chrome &/or colour coded mirrors whilst some didn't.

AU2 XRs and Futuras didn't have coloured mirrors when new, however the S3 did. There are a few out there that are colour coded though, just as BA XTs didn't but there are a couple out there that do - either owners got them colour coded or a few left the factory that way.

My AUII XR had metallic grey strips in the door and bumper moulds.

on further inspection i'm gonna say this is an AUII XR6 that's had a hit in the rear and an extremely dodgy fixup job.
