What car can keep up with a rs turbo escort?
The Escort turbo didn’t put that much power out to begin with. A Rover 1800 K series VVC puts out more power. It was however a good car in its day. And there lies the problem, its had its day and un molested examples are now getting hard to find. Pretty much any of the big engined small Citroen’s or Peugeot’s would hammer it and handle/brake better. The old Pug 1.9 GTI could always paste the Escort as it was far more nimble. I have driven all the hot hatches and smoking saloons and the MK1 Golf gti still takes some beating.
