    Ford Escort RS2000

    11644210225_4e583e2904_b.jpg

    The escort RS2000 was the last car
    to be introduced to the AVO production range, introduced in the June of 1973.
    The car fitted nicely into the AVO range with its performance almost comparable
    to the complex RS1600, but with the reliability and ease of maintenance as the
    Mexico.

    The original name for the car was to be the "Puma", but it was
    decided to keep with the RS tradition and so it was re-named the
    RS2000.

      Ford Escort Mexico

      The Ford Escort Mexico was
      introduced to the world in November 1970 and was so named because of Ford Motor
      Company's victory in the World Cup Rally.

      This rally started in London on 19th April 1970 and finished some 16,000 miles later in Mexico. Originally Ford intended to use Escorts with the Twin Cam or BDA engine, but after reconnaissance work it was decided that high speeds and high power were less important than reliability and ease...

      Ford released the 1600E Cortina late during 1967, which was quickly

      Escort Twin-Cam, AVO's Ancestor

      The 110bhp Lotus-powered Escort Twin Cam was conceived and developed by Ford's Boreham based competitions department during 1967 and unleashed on an unsuspecting public during January 1968. It went on to achieve many international race and rally victories during its short production life. The car's first international win was on the 1968 Circuit of Ireland Rally when driven by a certain Roger Albert Clark. ...
