SUMMARY
The post-facelift Mk5 RS2000 is a rare car with only a few hundred left. This is a great opportunity to acquire an excellent example of the Forgotten Fast Ford.
DESCRIPTION
- The RS2000 is a terrific all-rounder, still modern and comfortable enough for the daily commute, yet an absolutely engaging point-to-point B-road blaster when the mood takes you
- The facelifted Escort Mk5 arrived in October 1992 and the RS2000 gained flared side-skirts, rear bumper corner extensions, a curved tailgate spoiler and colour-coded rubbing strips
- The interior was understated but still recognisably Recaro with Raven Panache and the signature three-spoke wheel
- Finished in Pacifica Blue, this smart RS2000 was supplied new to its first lady owner by Peoples Ford of Liverpool
- It was enjoyed by one further owner before being acquired by our vendor for his RS Collection
- Supplied with its original dealer invoice, the service records with six stamps and an indicated mileage of 74,286
