Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This is a rare 4x4 version of the Ford Escort RS2000, with only around 350 made for road use. It has had two former keepers, with the second owning it from 1994 to 2018. The car comes with a good history file, including the original book pack and a service schedule with stamps up to 2010, followed by detailed maintenance invoices.
Condition

The car is described as well-maintained and cared for, with a host of invoices and a good history file, including the original book pack and service schedule. Recent recommissioning work has been done. However, the service schedule stamps only go up to 2010 and 76,000 miles, and there are detailed maintenance invoices since then, suggesting some use and wear. The RS Recaro trim is in very good order, indicating good interior condition. The presence of an MoT test certificate valid until August 2022 suggests it's in roadworthy condition.

Description
The Escort is a small family car manufactured by Ford Europe from 1968 as a successor to the Ford Pinto.
In early 1992, an all-new Zetec 16 valve engine was launched bringing improved drivability, while also marking the return of the XR3i, which was available with two versions of the 1.8 litre Zetec engine.
The RS2000 appeared in the autumn of 1991 with a 16 valve version of the Sierra's 2.0 litre engine providing improved ride and handling, meaning that this version of the Escort finally delivered great performance on the road.
Specifications, however, were also higher than before.
This is the rare 4x4 version of the Ford Escort RS2000 which reputedly only 500 were built with just 350 making it for road use and the rest being allocated for competition.
This car with only two former keepers, the first being the supplying dealer and the second owning the car since December 1994 until our vendor purchased the car in 2018.
