Built by Ford's Advanced Vehicle Operations at Aveley to celebrate the Escort's dominant 1-2-3 finish on the 1970 London to Mexico World Cup Rally, the Mexico paired the lightweight two-door shell with the 86bhp 1600cc Kent crossflow, uprated suspension, and full RS instrumentation.
It remains one of the most collectible and usable of all fast Fords.
This exceptional 1972 Mk.
I Mexico is finished in its correct and most iconic colour combination of Daytona Yellow with black Mexico side stripes and tail panel is set apart by its outstanding originality and integrity.
Whilst the subject of a high-quality sympathetic repaint in its original colour, this Escort retains all its original factory steel panels, a rarity today where many have been extensively repaired or re-shelled.
