Spare part availability should not be an issue, usually they will stock/supply parts for up to 10 years in cases like this.

If your worried about resale values, you probably shouldnt have bought it new.
The fact that Ford has stopped importing them wont have a direct affect to the resale value to the point that it will either take extra dollars off or add dollars on.

Depreciation is depreciation, the car will be worth less and less every year - thats just how it is.
There may be a point in many years to come when for some reason people want an old XR5, that may bring the value up a bit or hold it a bit higher than your average car of that style and era.

Basically though, your car isnt going to be worth any more now, or any less just because they wont import more of them.
