THE RALLY-BRED LEGEND – FORD ESCORT RS COSWORTH 🇬🇧🔥
Wild, turbocharged, and built purely so Ford could go rallying, the Escort RS Cosworth is one of the most iconic performance cars Britain has ever produced. Underneath sits Sierra Cosworth 4x4 running gear, a turbocharged 2.0-litre 16-valve YBT Cosworth engine, a 5-speed manual gearbox and permanent four-wheel drive – and on top sits that unmistakable whale tail rear wing, still one of the most recognisable shapes in motoring.
This is one of the earliest and most desirable examples – a 1992 big turbo car, built within the original run of 2,500 FIA homologation specials, and specified in the range-topping Lux trim with the rare optional leather Recaro seats.
Finished in stunning Pacifica Blue and completely standard throughout, this is exactly the kind of honest, original Escort Cosworth that collectors spend years hunting down.
