This car is a pure beast I love the mk 1 and 2 escorts I had a mk2 in 1990 for my 17th birthday wish I kept it if only I knew then how much the value would go up maybe I should get another
Love the car, Love the sound, but all the gadgets and gizmo's doesn't have anything to do with this car. This car is all about bare knuckle, steeringwheel biting, changing underpants every service driving.
@@twincamGT totally agree, these things are only an Escort in name and body panels. Try pushing to the edge on 13’s and leaf springs with no power steering and a H gate gearbox, that would sort the men out!
@@timvins your are dead right thiers a rally over here in Ireland. Its called the kilarney historic rally but it contain 2 sections all these wrc "Millington _escort" "s. and a historics section as ya said the historics has to be built to works gp4 spec leaf springs 13inch wheels. 2.0bd. The lot. They historic was glorious to watch and sound.of the bds wow But the most interesting thing of all was the time difference over the whole corse of the event between the modafied. Wrc _escorts and gp4 historic spec thier was only 3 or 4 seconds in the difference between them in the end of the event it just goes to show you how good they old real escorts really are. It was a eye opener. Launch control flappy paddle gear shift traction control dosent belong anywhere near a escort.
@@twincamGT "Launch control flappy paddle gear shift traction control dosent belong anywhere near a escort" this exactly, though I´m quite fond of the Millington engines, they are very impressive but gimme one with a proper H pattern box :)
Is your private rally stage available for hire? Wouldn't mind a belt up and down in my Impreza...
Reminds me of when i was shoving all kinds of engines in mrk1-2 escorts the cortina twin chokes worked well.
Insane, incredible, perfect!!! Congrat!!
Just pure class and more
Chuffing love that sound
I’d like to see what the timing is like against Frank Kelly and Baby Blue 👍🏼
Ian Kirkpatrick Check the times from Donegal last year! David was flying until his accident!

Nothing like an engine sound when it's 'on the cam'.
Love the steering wheel. Didn't notice him making any adjustments on it during the onboards.... :>)
Where is this?
Haha.. that was sick! Pure noise. No turbo? No worries!
Blimey.Fast!Would put a few WRC cars to shame👍!
As a M2 man this wee ford sounds healthy !! Well set up Davy 🏁🏁👍
Where is this and can it be rented out?
Love how driver is suited and booted but the passenger is wearing jeans and trainers :)
Great Stuff
Ford should start making the Mk.II again.
Motor Sport Tools are making NEW MK 1 and MK2 Escort's with BDG, Duratec or Millington Engines.
Was this filmed anywhere near the abbey ruins ?
Looks like Dundrennan military range in the south of Scotland. Where they hold the Solway Coast Rally. 🏁
Best sound ever ,you can't beat a high speed flyby
Nearly jumped 10 feet of the couch at the very end bit..
Mega
AWSOME

Mk2 ? best ever ! Yeahhhh
BD or Millington?
2.5L Millington Diamond. Just wow.
I'd have a historic 2.0bdg any day of the week. These wrc spec escorts are becoming a bit of a joke now
