Ford Escort

The Ford Escort RS2000 Maxi is a special homologation version of the Ford Escort intended for use in the FIA 2-Liter World Rally Cup. Originally qualified for homologation in 1992, the Escort was introduced into the 2-Liter World Rally Cup series in 1996; compared to its more famous brother the Escort RS Cosworth which competed in Group A, the RS2000 was a front-wheel drive car powered by a 2.0L N7A inline-4. Result for the series are hard to come by but the car is known to have won at least one race in the series. It was raced until 1999 when the championship folded due to high costs and replaced with the Super 1600 category. This casting incorporates some design elements from the real-world Group A RS Cosworth vehicle, such as the headlight configuration as well as the four fog lights in front.
