SPOTTED: FORD ESCORT RS1600I...

So as well as a limited run of 5000 units, the RS1600i was treated to Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection for its 1596cc CVH motor, trick cams and valve lifters and a higher compression ratio. An RS-badged alternative to the XR3i, the Escort RS 1600i was built by 'Ze Germans' (rather than developed in Britain at Dunton) as a homologation special for Group A racing. Underneath the nattily striped and foglighted body lay adjustable Koni dampers, springs that lowered the escort by 2 inches and chunkier wheels and tyres than on an XR3i. Whether that made it more hardcore than the Xr3i, or more nervous and less approachable is, we suppose a matter of taste.
