1987 Ford Escort RS review from UK and Ireland
"RS Turbos are the dogs danglies"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing apart from a damaged alloy wheel from hitting a pot hole in the road.
General comments?
It's a cracking car with great performance, the only thing that I'd change it for is an Escort Cosworth!
