Historical description:

The Ford Escort RS 1800 Mk.II is a legendary rally car produced by Ford that achieved triumphs in the FIA World Rally Championship in the late 1970s, specifically from 1975 to 1981. The British Mk.II version, an evolution of the first-generation Escort, was equipped with a 4-cylinder DOHC Cosworth in-line engine, which was distinguished not only by its high power but also by its reliability in demanding rally conditions. The car achieved spectacular successes in such prestigious rallies as the Rallye Monte Carlo and RAC Rally, thanks in part to the legendary driver Björn Waldegård, who won the world championship in the 1979 season.
