- 2.0 litre Zetec 'Blacktop' engine with twin Weber 45 DCOEs
- Five-speed manual gearbox
Built to a very high standard as a tribute to the legendary Mk. I RS2000, this 1970 Ford Escort has undergone a documented restoration before being transformed into the striking example offered today. Originally a standard Mk. I Escort finished in blue, DVLA records show it remained with its third registered keeper from 2000 until 2016 before passing to its next owner in 2017. During this ownership, the car was comprehensively rebuilt as an RS2000 evocation, faithfully recreating the appearance of Ford's iconic AVO-built performance Escort while incorporating carefully selected modern upgrades. It now forms part of a significant private collection and is offered for sale as the current owner reduces the collection.
Power comes from a 2.0 litre Ford Zetec 'Blacktop' engine fitted with twin Weber 45 DCOE carburettors, paired with a five-speed manual gearbox. Renowned for its sharp throttle response, reliability and evocative induction note, this specification delivers performance well beyond that of the original RS2000 while retaining the Mk. I Escort's engaging rear-wheel-drive character. The specification includes a fully restored bodyshell, performance cooling system, fuel cell, digital dashboard, custom-built oil catch tank, RS-style alloy wheels, quad headlamp grille, OMP suede steering wheel, BB-trimmed sports seats with contrast stitching and a full roll cage. The overall condition of the vehicle is excellent, having covered very few miles since its comprehensive restoration. It presents exceptionally well throughout.
Beautifully presented throughout, this Escort successfully captures the style and spirit of the iconic RS2000 while benefiting from modern Zetec reliability and enhanced performance. Equally suited to classic road rallies, enthusiast events or spirited weekend driving, it represents an exciting opportunity to own a superbly executed Fast Ford evocation. This Escort offers its next custodian an outstanding driving experience at a fraction of the cost of building one to this standard today. We believe the cost of recreating this car to a comparable specification would be close to twice the auction estimate.
