Ride well accompanied, treat yourself to an Escort. Sit back and keep your eyes peeled for the big thrill. Here's an Escort worthy of the greatest Hollywood gymkhanas, prepared to make a master crow fall from his perched tree. If that's not enough, it's been rolled, approved and signed by Ari Vatanen himself. It's calming, we know. So, if arriving by road in a hillclimb makes you laugh, it's the bank card you need to smoke.
