    I always wanted a White Lightning series 1 RS turbo and after selling my second RS1600i finally got one only to realize the example I bought was a dog and struggled to get shot of it when I did I managed to buy a fantastic series 2 RS Turbo to replace it. This car was so good I sold it for £10 ...

    Ford Escort RS Turbo's are wicked cars. They are still old, but they are guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Knowledge and support is needed by the owner, and it can be found at sites like http://rs-mania.co.uk

    I bought a Ford Escort RS Turbo stage 2 on an F plate around two years ago with FFSH but was in red and had the problem with the fading which was resolved with some handy work from Ed Short who I recomend with bodywork. Unfortunetly I have only driven this car for about 4 months! But that four month ...

    Have just bought my 1987 Ford Escort RS Turbo after trying to find one that hasn't been involved in an accident. I am extremely happy it has just spent the weekend having a full cossie management system installed and a fully digital in dash HKS system to tell me everything going on under the hood. W ...

    This is a 201 Bhp Ford Escort RS Turbo. Lightweight Mk3 shell with mk 4 running gear tipping the scales at just under 1000Kg. It has Cosworth brakes, koni suspension, and 16 inch wheels.

    This is a really fast car. It has terrible handling and torque steer to challenge pop eye. It a straight line ...

    I have owned a Ford Escort RS Turbo for two years and never regretted buying it. I got it near enough standard and have since added: hearts & diamonds brain, T3 hybrid, wired in 5th injector, full stainless and cone filter, uprated actuator, dump valve, and vernier pulley. this is enough to give i ...

But the thing that really gave me the ...

    I had a Ford Escort RS Turbo a few years back and wasn't impressed at all. It was quite quick but its speed and handling were no match for a MG Maestro turbo. It also was a constant battle to fend off the rust. Other bad points include poor space, cheap plastics and high insurance costs (even for wh ...
