My favourite Ford would be the one actually built by Aston Martin (well, the early ones were). With the turbo charged Cologne V6, but without that horrible body kit.
I know you can’t know everything about every car, but you got soooo many things wrong in a 6min video. Rs1600i mk1 nope, didn’t make one, standard rs1800 fiesta nope, it had Rs turbo interior, Escort Orion, nope, it was an Orion and then rebadge as an Escort, so it’s one or the other, a whale tail on a mk4 Rs turbo?? Standard Cosworth wheels, nope, they’re aftermarket bigger versions. It’s all pretty simple stuff.
Blimey, you certainly know your Ford! Just to clarify a few bits: you're quite right, I meant RS1600, but I'd just finished looking at a '16i, so had that on my brain. I didn't get a chance to look at the RS1800's interior personally, our cameraman filmed that while I took a call, also the car was otherwise seeming standard. "Escort Orion" was a bit of artistic license, as I couldn't really call it a Mk5 Orion as it only started with the MK3 Escort, hence the Mk5 Escort-based Orion is actually the third gen. I agree the MK4 RST's spoiler isn't a Cosworth wing, but you'll grant me it's bigger and brasher than an XR3i's? And at a glance, those wheels certainly looked like standard Cosworth alloys, and when they look the same, who's really counting? 😁
Great great video 👍
Great selection of Fords.
This was fun to watch and fast moving, too!!! Lots of nice motor cars
Hopefully I'll be there next year with my Mk1 Focus RS and Mk2 Focus RS 👌
Look forward to seeing them!
I saw a couple of Mk1 Mondeos there too. One was a Citrine!!! That's rare.
Ford Escort Orion? Wasn't it just the Ford Orion until they changed it to Escort, I don't recall it was ever the Escort Orion.
Damn! I didn't know there was a Fiesta 1800 at the time. When my 1.6S went pop after six years I bought a 1.1L instead. Probably just as well... 😁👍

The Capri Tickford.
For the 50K, you could buy a budget car at one of the auctions you cover and go on a road trip.
A Mk1 escort RS1600i?? lol 😂
