II RS2000 is one of the most celebrated classic Fords, combining practicality with performance and cementing its place as an icon of 1970s motoring.

Produced between 1975 and 1980, the Mk.

II RS2000 built on the success of its predecessor while introducing a sharper, more modern design.

With its square-edged styling, revised interior, and updated suspension, the Mk.

II quickly became a favourite among rally drivers and road-going enthusiasts alike.

At the heart of the RS2000 was the robust 2.0 litre Pinto engine, delivering around 110hp.

Its rear-wheel-drive layout, precise steering, and well-tuned suspension gave it excellent balance, making it a joy on twisty roads and an ideal base for competition use.
