Ford Rs Escorts: the Complete Story

Temporarily out of stock

The story of the Ford ‘RS’ Escorts is that of a highly successful range of cars that remained in production for almost thirty years and which started as an idea in a manner that has almost passed into legend.

From the Twin Cam Escort of 1968 through the Escort Mexico, the RS1600 and RS2000, up to the Escort RS Cosworth and RS2000 4x4 of the late 1990s, motoring author and confirmed Escort enthusiast, Graham Robson, tells the whole story of these fine cars.

Illustrated throughout, with full specifications and sidebars covering interesting personalities, this will be essential reading for all Ford and sporting car enthusiasts.
