"If you were born in the 1970s, like myself, this is one of those true boy racer dream cars — the rally-bred Escort that famously took on and beat the Audi Quattro in the World Rally Championship. Even today, it’s a quick, engaging drive that puts a huge smile on your face — and on everyone watching it pass by."

Beschreibung

Factory-built at Ford’s Saarlouis plant in Germany, this 1978 RS2000 was special-ordered by a Ford employee in Antwerp, Belgium. It is supported by an additional Ford Belgium identity plate alongside the original German plate, as well as a confirming letter from Ford — strong and rare provenance.

The first owner kept the car until his passing, after which it was sold to a collector. The car is believed to have undergone an older restoration, likely carried out in the early 2000s. According to the seller, it has had three owners in Belgium.

Specification includes:
Group 1 engine with twin Weber 44 IDF carburettors
Approx. 150 hp
Rocket gearbox
Quick-ratio steering rack
Original 7.5” RS alloy wheels
Wilwood brakes

The car was acquired by a UK-based collector in 2018, where it remained part of a private collection. The current owner, a close friend of the previous keeper, purchased and imported the car in 2024.

It was registered and inspected on 2024-08-23, with inspection valid until 2026-07-31. Following the next inspection, the car will become inspection-exempt for life.

The car is highly presentable and an absolute pleasure to drive — it feels tight, planted, and handles like it’s on rails. The engine is strong and delivers plenty of power. While the mileage cannot be fully verified, it is believed to be around 102,908 km.

Recent work includes a full service and carburettor tuning. The car also comes with an additional steering wheel and jack.

Beurteilung Fahrzeugzustand

  • Zustand technisch

    Engine starts immediately, just needs a few minutes to warm up.
    2.0 OHC Group 1 tuned engine with twin Weber 44 IDF carbs, sharper cam, and larger valves. Fitted with a Rocket close-ratio gearbox, quick rack steering, 7.5” RS alloys, and Wilwood brakes. Drives tight and responsive with strong performance and solid braking. Only note: temperature gauge not working (likely sender/thermostat). Ready to drive and enjoy.

  • Zustand Interieur

    Black interior is clean and tidy. Front bucket seats are in good condition, while the rear seat foam has slightly deteriorated, causing some wrinkling on the fabric.
    Rear left trim over the wheel arch needs refitting. Door cards, headliner, and carpets are all in good condition. Dashboard is well preserved with original gauges. Fitted with a 4-speed gearbox, along with an electric kill switch and fire extinguisher. Some minor wear to the silver trim around the dashboard.

  • Zustand Exterieur

    Bodywork is straight with good panel fit, featuring the original X-Pack body kit with embossed Ford logos as factory fitted. No major rust issues noted — only minor blistering on the edges of both doors. Paintwork is clean, bright, and in very good condition, with a few small paint chips on the right wing (see pictures). The underbody and boot floor are solid, with only very light surface rust around the sill seams — nothing serious. Clean engine bay with no signs of oil leaks.

  • Zustand gesamt

    These cars are highly desirable and iconic among enthusiasts and collectors. They rarely come to market — especially genuine X-Pack examples. What makes them stand out is that they remain hugely enjoyable to drive, while still being relatively simple and affordable to maintain.

Auktionsinfo

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
  • For items that have not been collected within 14 days storage costs may be charged.
