Certainly cant

My Favorites are MkI Twin Cam, MkI RS1600/RS2000/Mexico, MkII RS2000

1. RS1800 (PS: Only the GP4s out of Boreham came with a ZF and Atlas LSD - not generally available to the public though!!))
2. RS1600
3. TwinCam

The MaDDeSTMaN · 07-24-2004, 06:12

1. Mk II RS1800
2. Mk II RS2000
3. Mk I Twin Cam
4. Mk 5 RS Cosworth
5. Mk I RS2000

Ok, I'm weird, I actually prefer the Mk II shape, but I can appreciate the Mk I shape as well.

And while I would prefer a Mk II RS1800, it certainly doesn't mean that if I was given an Escort cosworth that I would say "No thanks mate, don't want it" - far from it!

As far as I'm concerned, all the RS model Escorts are highly desireable, as is the Twin Cam (anybody who has heard one being driven will understand why, that lotus twin cam engine is sweeeet!)

I'd have to go forthe MKII RS2000 or just the MKII shape in general, its just a mini beast mate, i sold my EA so i could own my third eski haha

yer rs 2000 is sweet

Mr Jucy · 10-02-2004, 10:00

The Cosworth has to be the ultimate Excort but of the classics I can't go past the Mk 1s

I would have to have to say that the MK2 RS2000 is the better shape, i myself own a MK2, but its a 1.6 ltr 4 spd panel van. Getting to look nice now, will have a pic to go on soon.MK2 shape is a better shape, but my father had a MK1 which was the wishbone front end. I have always like that front end, im thnking of putting that front end into my MK2.
