⭕ VEHICLE SUMMARY
The RS Turbo's once boisterous image has settled down to a respected cornerstone of the fast Ford scene.
The 1980s was a particularly exciting decade for the development of the Turbocharged family car, bringing performance with practicality, Ford capitalised on their considerable market coverage and marketing to offer a wide range of cars that would create envy and a dedicated following. The Escort RS Turbo is based on the hardy FWD MK4 Ford Escort, improved by adding more power, refinement and fittings to what was now established as Britain's best-selling car of the decade. The RS Turbo models joined the lineup not long after the introduction of the MK4 and was fitted with a revised 130 bhp KE-Jetronic mechanical fuel injection turbocharged CVH 1.6-litre engine. Based on the XR3i, they were distinguished by their unique alloys, bonnet vents, wheel arch extensions, side skirts, colour-coded rear spoiler and Recaro cloth seats. The RS Turbo became an instant icon, providing an affordable and brisk option for those looking for a lively driving experience with plenty of usability.
This smartly presented and original specification March 1989 RS Turbo in "Diamond White" with grey upholstery, comes with an impressive record of servicing and retains almost every one of its MOT certificates since new. It has seen over £1,200 spent in the past year on its engine, including a new cam belt, water pump and service and appears to have been looked after by successive Ford enthusiasts throughout its life. It has an MOT to September 2025, two keys and comes with its owners wallet and booklet.
