1970s Ford RS CollectionSince 1970, the RS badge has adorned the ultimate fast Fords, cars that have won in motor sport the world over and createdan enduring legend of success that proved the old adage, win on Sunday sell on Monday. RS was first seen on the 1968 FordTaunus 15M Rallye Sport, a front-wheel-drive 2-door saloon or coupĂ© with a 90bhp 1699cc V4. However, the legend reallybegan in 1970 when the Capri RS2600 and Escort RS1600 were launched; both won, prodigiously, and cemented RS in thepublic consciousness as Ford’s glamorous symbol of speed and success.

The racers’ 3.4-litre Cosworth-designed DOHC engine used the originalEssex V6 block and produced 455bhp but, like the rest of the car, pushed the rules to the limit.
