it will be 40 years since the start of the Escort and where the RS marque came from.

Time for a party or 2

The 110bhp Lotus-powered Escort Twin Cam was conceived and developed by Ford's Boreham based competitions department during 1967 and unleashed on an unsuspecting public during January 1968. It went on to achieve many international race and rally victories during its short production life. The car's first international win was on the 1968 Circuit of Ireland Rally when driven by a certain Roger Albert Clark.

The AVO factory is still there, but no longer operated by Ford motor company.

The whole site is for sale for development.
