This 1974 Escort RS2000 is one of the Broadspeed-modified cars, fitted from new with steel wheelarches and twin carburettors by the Warwickshire tuner. It is finished in its original blue with the correct interior trim, and the page describes the colour as rare. The 2.0-litre four-cylinder drives through a five-speed manual gearbox and is quoted at 150 bhp.
It was supplied new in April 1974 to a crane hire company director, who kept it for 35 years until 2009. Dinitrol rust treatment was applied in May 1974. The car has had three keepers in all, and has covered 66,900 miles.
A nine-year restoration has since been completed, and MoT certificates are on file back to 1979. It runs on 205/50 R15 Toyo Proxes tyres. The price is on application.
