In 1973 the Mark I Escort was in the fifth year of an unusually long run for a small Ford, built in England, West Germany and Australia, and assembled from kits in Israel and New Zealand. The range was dominated by the 1100 and 1300 cc crossflow engines, with the 1300GT and the executive 1300E above them, while the RS2000 with a 2.0 liter Pinto engine had arrived as a less temperamental alternative to the RS1600 for rally and road.
