The Britis from Autocar have released a new review video during the weekend, but this time it involves an old classic, the Ford Escort Mexico – a model which celebrated the the 1970 London to Mexico Rally in which the mark I Escort has placed 1st, 3rd, 5th and 6th.
The Ford Escort Mexico was among the first performance models to be sold on a large scale, with the company building around 10,000 exemplars between 1970 and 1974, with pricing per unit at 1,000 GBP.
These days the Ford Escort Mexico goes for 15,000 GBP a pop and under its bonnet the car features a 1.6-litre 4-cylinder engine, which still proves agile around public roads.
