![FORD Escort MK2 - Best of | historic rally , drifts & hillclimb - Rally - pure sound [HD]](/img/n.gif)
I'm here in 2023 sitting on my couch being taken back to the 80's when I was a lad loving Fords, listening to 80's music & drinking straight from the hosepipe on a hot summers day. Little did I know back then, that I was growing up in the best time ever.
In case you were wondering… no, we prefer seeing forwards during the quick bits!
why would we want to watch old mate did he think those vids of girls with big tits in fast cars is how you should mate all car videos
There really are not enough words in the English language to accurately describe the level of awesomeness this car exudes.
I'll second that, simply stunning.
@Gerry Sciandra Sad.
If you don't even trust your girlfriend, you need to sort yourself out son.
Agree, mint doesn’t quite do it
2, Oh Fuck !
Beautiful colour. Love how the owner is happy showing it off to people and having a laugh these cars are meant to be enjoyed
Funny you say about the colour, I don't like it. better in red or white but still a beautiful car
Thought he was going to end up in the field, lovely car
Absolute work of art that, mk2 escort was one of my first cars in the late 80’s, always wanted a rs2000. Top work 👍
Must be one of the tidiest MK2’s in the country. Stunning 👌🥰
A M A Z I N G ! Always wanted one and this is about as good as they get.
Stunning car but can't help thinking it would be a lot more fun to drive with a standard Cossie engine.
🤔
This is the ONE, there is nothing else i would want more in my life than an exact, right down to the last detail replica of this car, Great Job, couldnt have made it any better, not unless it had a Jet engine installed on it, I just Love these cars so much, Period.
The Car that got me hooked on Flared Arches The RS 2000 X Pack Pure Ford Madness, what a Minta, Great video she's an EPIC Build. Thanks for sharing the memories. Its good to be 55 years Young.
Credit to the builder, what a machine 👍👍👍 hats off to you Sir !!
We have one like that in the late 70s. I have so much fun really driving our escort during my time. It really bring me back to those days.
The Ford Escort RS 2000 mk2 has always been my favourite fast Ford.
Somebody has done their homework, well done!!
Amazing. Wonderful car. Properly done and actually driven not locked away. Just need to dial in some softer damping to get all that power down.
That's a bit lively as me dad would say tail happy fun all th way nice thank you for the upload
Ha ha ha ha they always were. :) Thats a car in its Rawest form, Engine, steering, drive shaft, wheels.
Piece of kit that. Reminds me of an old X Pack RS2000 I used to drool over in a garage in Runcorn from the top deck of the school bus.
That is stunning !!!
Always been my dream car the Rs2000 a true rally legend and now such a iconic car almost at remortgage money now
Flatnose RS1800😉
Unfortunately yes. I bought my last nutter RS in the late 80's for 4k
@@66meikou i sold mine in 1993 for £400
Kick myself now when I see how much they are worth
@Patrick Anderson myself too , sold my rs2 2.1 79yr black/black vinyl roof NWX 94V for little money really and like many wish I had kept it and often wonder where it is now hopefully still in one piece albeit from vehicle check I see it had a colour change to red after I sold it.
Nice to see it back with a cossie motor in again. Looks very similar to when my mate built and sold it.
It needs more weight on the rear axle though, as it simply can't get the power down.
The wheels, the tyres, the colour code of the wheels, the body kit with the nose cone, the colour of the car, everything has been put together with precise ingenuity, this could not have been built any better unless it had a mid - engined 4WD Dragster engine installed, Lol, Amazing Car.
Stunning motor 😍 👌
Read the comments before watching, now understand all the negative ones, but lovely looking well done MK2. 😮
Wow fantastic 👏👏😎🔥
That looks to be a serious handfull !!
Cleanest example of all time. But, was it too stiff for that road? Looked like you could only get the power down on a marble smooth track
I remember when Pig very first built this & then chopped all the wings off to fit the X-pack kit!! Still like it though & I'm glad it's still recognisable & still about :)
What a beauty !
Spray the cage bruv 👍🏻🤣👍🏻edit this is thee best I've seen
All that horse power with nowhere to gallop!!!
Saw this car come up on a classic fords for sale page I follow on Facebook. Awfully tempted. I would love another Series X, my old one (see my avatar) had a fully built pinto and then later an F20c. I’d have to sell my RS Edition to fund it mind.
So many haters in the comments!!
That is a beautiful car.
I grew up with the mk3 escort but the mk2 &mk1's for that matter look so much more fun. Probably out of my price range forever now though 😢
Just fabulous :)
That’s lovely that is 👌🏻
That is a thing of beauty ❤❤
1.40 That is what we used to fondly call when we were younger an upside down Pram ! ;)
🤣🤣🤣
Bloody gorgeous! Loved RS2000 ..... 👍
Wow best motor I’ve ever seen my dream car this
Such a gorgeous yellow.
Very nice , love RS fords , can’t drive unfortunately but never mind eh , he looks happy enough! 🤷♂️😜👌
Simply gorgeous
Killer black 2cv man
I had a flat nose RS 1760 crossflow 40s bullet box xpack warrior mark 2 Escort with Hugo on the reg it was Ford diamond White with black details😊 I missed that car so much 30 years ago it was up for sale for £2,000 and I sold it in the end for 995 what a mistaka😅😅😮😮😢😢😢
Vvvverrrrryyyyy Niiiiiiiccce !!
I'm soooooooo all over that car. My first RS was signal yellow I so wanted to find a scrapped cossie 4x4 and get someone to fit it to my last RS. My last RS was nicked and I ended up over in the states.
Thats a really cool machine . .
BEAST
Lovely car proving less is more!
That is the circa 5th Sept Shere hill climb, I thought about entering my stage 1 Audi S5 440hp(Surrey rolling Road) but the road is totally unsuitable and bumpy as hell. I drive the road quite often and you simply can't steer with that sort of power, the wheels won't stay planted so it's dangerous. The Escort looks like a very nice car.
A hillclimb with passengers and no safety gear 😬
You’d have a lot of fun hillclimbing in the Cayman ;)
Oh dear ! He mugged himself right off there 😂 5:56
Love the Escort.
Its on ebay
My wife learned to drive in this RS2000 back in the day. It was a bit slower then.
Dosen't handle well does it!
That car is "MINT" the shape of it and the size of it is awesome, and the nose cone on the front is really giving it that extra special one of a kind ultra rare retro look which is very rare and very hard to find on one of these MK2 RS2500 Escorts, that is like super rare, it would be interesting to see how much this car would fetch in an auction if it was a one off escort fan club auction with people with lots of money.......
The front end of the RS2000 came out of the factory that way - this is not a standard mk 2 with a modified front end. Save Nose cones for jet fighters too. ;)
Wow not seen the car in years got a pic of it at Ryka’s Cafe Boxhill I think not long after it was first built.
Omg how shit is that road. GOAT TRACK
This cars up for grabs on fleebay
When the backend comes to say hello , lol
Maquinão 💪😎👌
Lovely Car but needs a proper suspension fettling, much too softly sprung with no bump or rebound control.
Gorgeous example
When you take this car to Good-Wood, can you please face the cam towards the windshield for a longer period of time, no dis-respect, i just want to get an idea of what it must look like when that thing is going flat-out, burning rubber and chewing up tarmak, and what the on-coming visual display would be like when its at full-tilt with no humps or bumps, thanks guys, just one last thing though, i do get it when your man stated, "im speechless" it just says it all about the sheer power and acceleration that thing has, 10,000/10,000 all the time.
Is this a reupload? I think I saw this car pop up for sale on a group. It might be why its up again?
Have you tried this out at santa pod ? I did a 14 second quater in a 1970 souped 1200 beetle once ;)
I had two of these back in the 80s one orange and one green not with the Cosworth engine though...
Beautiful car but I thought I would never say too much power & no traction
Very nice car, I really like the yellow tone on the color, what's the color code?
Signal yellow
NICE
Nice ford 🙏😎
Those RS alloys oh my days ❤️
No need for music escort made its own ❤awesome
I'm sure it's a great car, but I would much prefer an original, unmodified RS 2000. This is barely more than an RS 2000 shell. 🙁
And he really needs to learn to keep both hands on the wheel unless changing gear.
Nice car, bin the music
Fantastic motor but...no use having the power if you can't get it to the tarmac.
Nice car (escort)
I just wanted to say how much I liked his Mk2 and not give lessons.
My Mk2 was a group 4 Rothmans
😍
There wont be much that will keep up a friend of mine used to race motorbikes with his about the same power
Is it sold????
LOOKS LIKE IT WOULD NEED A DIFFERENT SET UP FOR EVRYDAY DRIVING AROUND COUNTRY ROADS OR ANY ROADS FOR THAT MATTER
This thing is clearly overpowered with a terrible, terrible suspension. Fortunately Reiger makes suspension sets for historic rallying, ask for the 5062 (front) and 4616 (rear).
Looks like Stevie wonder put the stripe on
Is it firework night already?
that Citroen beat it off the line.
Wow
"that" still got the owner there and possibly home too...
Be good fun on a motorway 🛣
Iam sure I saw this car in portland Dorset at the weekend
Back end all over the shop
Haven't we seen this video before?
Nice but not sure I could spend £48.5k on it.
No way
Lovely looking wagon. Goes like shite off a stick😉👍
What a truly sexy car ..
.what dreams are made of 😊
Absolutely amazing but proper struggles to get the power down which is such a shame, ive seen quicker looking st1700 engines in them look faster
The Citroen 😂
Nice (incredible...) Zakspeed type build but too much power.... slipping and sliding all over the place. Pretty unusable :(
How do you compete in motorsport with short sleeves and no helmets? Crazy Poms. Amazing car though!!!
Motorsport?
Bloodyhell!
