Classic Cars | September 2018
ESCORT AT 50
he Escort doesn’t seem fifty years old. It’s also hard to believe that you haven’t been able to buy one for twenty years now. It still seems immovable from the motoring and social landscape even today. But why do we remember the Escort and not comparable rivals over the years such as the Vauxhall Viva, Nissan Sunny or Fiat Tipo? The fact we’ve assembled so many sporting versions today, and driven them with David Richards, the man who navigated an RS1800 to 1981 World Rally Championship glory, says it all – this was a classless family saloon that was also a sports car; an economy runabout that turned ordinary motorists into committed petrolheads in the space of a single spirited drive on a country lane. It also managed a usually impossible balance of desirability, affordability, utility and style.
