Description

The Ford Escort RS 1700T was a prototype RWD car designed by Ford Motor Company in 1980 to compete in Group B rallying. Prototypes were based on the MKIII Escort and featured a turbocharged 1.8 litre four cylinder engine producing over 200 horsepower. Persistent problems during the vehicle's development prompted Ford to drop plans for its production and instead begin work on an all-wheel-drive model designed and built from scratch, resulting in the famous RS200.

I took this photo in Paris at the launch of the Ford Sierra to dealers where I was working on the Ford Service stand. The RS1700T was also on show. There was some difficulty getting it into the display area...
