Whilst is a cracking vid, its no Mk2 - more like a WRC car with a Mk2 Shell - sequential box on a Mk2 - my arse!!!

Thats what most MkIIs are like though nowadays, You see the ones over in Ireland??

Theyve been "slightly" updated to keep them competitive, cos everyone knows that the chassis and the handling will never be beaten.


Look at Mcraes MkII, I think he changed it that much, the body was barely even a MkII anymore

Another repost there with Ari Vatanen. I think we've pretty much covered every aspct of MkII Escorts..hmm, I wonder why

Such a ridiculous car, so much so that Ari struggled to control it

Didnt a mechanic drive it out on one of the roads after the last time it was drivin properly, and crash it in a ditch, destroying it ?

IIRC the crash in that video - on the 1982 Arnold Clark Scottish Rally was the last action it ever saw. Group B was taking hold and it was never reapaired as it wasnt competitive compaired to the 4wd stuff.
