Description
A rare opportunity to own a true Ford performance icon, this 1995 Ford Escort RS2000 Mk5.5 3dr is a superbly presented example of one of the most recognisable fast Fords of the 1990s. Finished in Radiant Red, this car has recently undergone a bare metal restoration and also benefits from a brand new custom exhaust, giving it the presence and condition its RS heritage deserves.
The RS2000 Mk5.5 holds an important place in Escort history. With its purposeful styling, driver-focused cabin and eager 2.0 litre 16 valve engine, it helped restore excitement to the Escort range and remains one of the standout RS models of its era. Today, it is an increasingly desirable modern classic with genuine enthusiast and collector appeal. This also marks the last Rally Sport (RS) Ford Escorts to be produced. The end of an era spanning back to 1970.
This example captures that spirit perfectly. The 3 door body style, Recaro cloth sport seats and tilt-and-slide sunroof all add to the period-correct feel, while the restoration work makes this a car that stands out for all the right reasons. Finished in classic Radiant Red, it has the look, stance and character that define a proper 90s RS Ford.
