Very well presented second-generation Escort RS Turbo with just one former registered keeper from new. The Series 2 Escort RS Turbo (1986-1990) was more suited to daily use, whereas the earlier car was a bit of an 'homologation special' New features included the water-cooled Garrett T3 turbo, revised engine management settings, improved KE-Jetronic unit, lower overall gearing, an improved gearbox, limited-slip differential and a larger clutch. Suspension and chassis changes included stiffer front and rear springs, uprated anti-roll bars, mechanical ABS and larger brakes. The S2 produced an impressive 132bhp at 5,750rpm offering a top speed of 125mph and a 0-60mph time of 8.3 seconds.

Supplied new by Reeds of Trowbridge and first registered on 10/02/1989, this Mercury Grey example is indicating 89,350 miles. Just one former registered keeper from new. Original dealer plates and sticker in the rear window. Lots of service receipts, old MOTs, tax discs and a handbook. Benefiting from a £3,500 service c.2022 and less than 500 miles since. MOT until April 2026. This model has been gaining momentum in the market recently and we encourage your inspection at our June Sale at Bicester Heritage.
