We are pleased to offer this highly competitive Rddel Motorsport prepared Ford Escort RS1800 Mk2 - Group 2 for sale. Originally constructed from a standard Escort Mk2 bodyshell and initially prepared to full Group 4 specification for the personal use of Robert Rddel, this car benefits from direct provenance to one of Germanys most respected historic Ford specialists. Around 2017, the car was sold to a private customer and converted by Rddel Motorsport to full FIA Group 2 circuit racing specification. The car has since been campaigned successfully in German DRM and Youngtimer racing events, particularly at the Nrburgring, where it has demonstrated consistent front-running performance.
The car is prepared in accordance with FIA Homologation Form No. 1605, utilizing all available extensions of this homologation. It is supplied with a valid FIA Historic Technical Passport (HTP) valid until the end of 2028 and is sold in 100% race-ready condition with a fresh, zero miles 2.0-litre Cosworth BDG engine built by Rddel Motorsport in early 2026 delivering 285 bhp. Induction is through Lucas mechanical fuel injection, gearbox is a ZF 5-speed close-ratio box with ZF plate-type limited slip differential, AP Racing braking system with ventilated discs front and rear and a valid FIA FT3 safety fuel cell. Spares consist of 3 front and 3 rear wheels.
The car is eligible for all major historic touring car racing series and international events, including but not limited to Peter Auto Heritage Touring Cup, Le Mans Classic, Youngtimer Trophy, Nrburgring Classic and Spa Summer Classic. Its correct Group 2 specification and competitive preparation make it suitable for participation at the highest level of historic touring car racing.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a proven, front-running Group 2 Ford Escort RS1800 Mk2 with direct Rddel Motorsport provenance in race-ready condition and with full FIA compliance.
