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.
