The Ford Escort MK I RS 2000 stands as one of the most legendary rally cars ever created, representing the pinnacle of 1970s British motorsport engineering. Released in 1973, this iconic performance saloon was born from Ford’s desire to create a more reliable alternative to the temperamental RS1600, featuring the robust 2.0-litre Pinto overhead cam engine that would become synonymous with rallying success. The RS 2000’s combination of lightweight construction, aggressive styling, and exceptional handling characteristics made it an instant classic that dominated both the rally stages and the hearts of enthusiasts worldwide. The 1973 model year represents the birth of this legendary machine, finished in the classic white paintwork that became the signature of Ford’s motorsport heritage.
