I have a rs2000 with a ford x pack fitted. this was a ford option " series X kit " you specify as much or little change as you like. look at www.rsownersclub.co.uk/car_info/rs2000sx.htm to get after market kit look in retro ford mag and contact sellers in mag OR contact Andrew at velo seats in Adelaide what he dont know about escorts and parts you dont need to know good luck

Sounds good, a escort track car is in my plan for sometime within 24 months. Ive been wanting one for year; prefer the mk2's myself.
