Details:

Introduced in 1975, the Ford Escort Mk2 RS2000 quickly became one of Britain’s most iconic hot hatches, blending everyday usability with serious performance. Developed by Ford’s European performance division, the RS2000 was powered by the 1998cc Pinto twin-carb engine, producing around 110 bhp, and featured a close-ratio gearbox and uprated suspension for agile handling.

Distinctive styling included flared wheel arches, RS2000 badging, front spoilers, and alloy wheels, signalling its sporting intent. The Mk2 RS2000 enjoyed a strong motorsport pedigree, particularly in rallying, further cementing its reputation. Today, it is highly sought-after by collectors and model enthusiasts for its unmistakable 1970s Ford performance character and enduring legacy in British automotive history.
