Ford Escort RS 2000



So rough and without special features the Escort in Germany failed despite the low price as a VW Beetle killer, so much he can win in race trim the fans for itself. After the 1600, the RS 2000 combines a near-competitive chassis with only a minimum of comfort. He also does not have a complex cylinder head with two overhead camshafts. Nevertheless, the two-liter engine is specifically been prepared for use in the Escort, for example by an aluminum oil pan, where the oil flows only through a labyrinth before being sucked in again. Well, it can not keep up with its started up 1600s brothers, but is affordable and first of all lightweight. For that time the low power-to-weight ratio and the greater cubic capacity provide for good performance. The chassis is doing its part to do so. Even the paintwork is a little less conspicuous than in the other sport Escorts. In view to the offer the starting-price of approx. DM 10.000 is fine.
