Ford RS200: The Unfinished Legend
Looking back at a rally weapon that never reached its full potential, the mighty RS200.

The RS200 was Ford’s answer to Group B insanity—lightweight, mid-engined, four-wheel-drive, and turbocharged to within an inch of its life. It had all the ingredients to dominate. But just as it was getting warmed up, Group B was axed in 1986.

450bhp wasn’t enough? That’s how mad the competition had become. And yet, in its short WRC life, the RS200 still showed glimpses of brilliance, proving what could have been.

🚗💨 to when the Betty brothers unleashed these 388bhp twin Sapphire RS Cosworths onto the streets! Ricky’s Moonstone Blue beast and Dan’s Magenta machine are proof that when it comes to Fords, it’s all about blood, sweat, and boost.

🔧 Built from the ground up with matching spec YB engines, each one packs Mahle forged pistons, uprated rods, Harvey Gibbs ECU mapping, and custom airboxes. But who did it better—Ricky’s Compomotive MO5s or Dan’s FMVs?

🔥 Which Cossie would you take home? Let us know in the comments! ⬇️

Back in the summer I caught up the man responsible for getting me into Fords in the first place - Pete Wooltorton. It was his hard-driven Sierra Cosworth RS500 that made my want a Cossie.... But it wasn't this one. There's an interesting story behind that....

Also, stay tuned for Part 2 of this video, where hsi current RS500 gets a surprised (and very happy!) new driver! :)

RESTORE. MODIFY. CRUSH 🔥🙈🚗

Choose your RS Turbo. Pick one to restore, one to modify, and one to send to the scrpayraed in the sky. You have to pick one for each... what's your choice?

1. S1 Es**rt RS Turbo
2. S2 Es**rt RS Turbo
3. Fiesta RS Turbo

Go...!

Disclaimer: we’re not really going to crush anything 🙄. It’s just a bit of fun that would prove a very difficult/impossible choice. 🙈

TUNE IT TUESDAY!
The Ford Cosworth YB engine needs no introduction. It’s a legend in its own right, powering some of the most iconic fast Fords ever built. But how do you unlock its full potential? Whether you're aiming for 300bhp or pushing past 500bhp, we’ve got the ultimate tuning guide for you!

"From the factory, the YB was already a weapon, but with the right tweaks, it can transform into a fire-breathing monster. A healthy YB block can take around 400bhp on stock internals, but after that, you’ll need to start thinking about forged rods and pistons…"

🔥 Throwback Thursday: The GT90—Ford’s Supercar That Never Was! 🔥

What happens when you combine two V8s, four turbos, and a vision for the future? You get the Ford GT90—a concept that boasted 720bhp and a mind-blowing top speed of 253mph. 🏁

Built at Ford’s SVT plant using XJ220 parts, the GT90 was Ford’s chance to prove their supercar chops. It didn’t just challenge McLaren F1 specs—it bulldozed past them on paper. Sadly, full-scale production wasn’t in the cards, but the GT90 still holds its place in motoring legend.

Throwback Thursday: 200mph Cossie!

There are few cars that can be described as a true legend within the Ford scene, but this modified Sierra Sapphire Cosworth is most certainly one of them. Originally owned and created by the legendary Rod Tarry and built by tuning expert Mark Shead of MA Developments, it was the first road-legal Cosworth to crack 200mph!
And despite its subtle looks it has been at the forefront of YB tuning for over two decades. What’s more, it still is in its new guise, having been recently rebuilt and recommissioned by the new owner, Carl Billings.

Read the full story over at the Fast Car website: https://www.fastcar.co.uk/cars/modified-sierra-sapphire-cosworth-keeping-it-old-school/

Will it beat its own record of 206.1mph? It's certainly better placed to do so than it ever has been before!

This car has no doubt been an inspiration to many a fast Ford fan. Let us know which car(s) inspired your own projects!

If Your Ford Was a Song, What Would It Be?

🎤 Every Ford has a personality – and every personality has a soundtrack!

💡 If your Ford was a song, what would it be? Post your suggestion in the comments and let us know what makes it the perfect match.

I'll start based on some of my old project cars:
-"Oops, I Did it Again": Sapphire Cosworth that broke something every single time I drove it!🤣
-"Blinded by the Light": the dashboard warning lights on a Mk3 Mondeo diesel daily driver! 🙈
- "Shake, Rattle & Roll": Sapphire 24v project with rock-hard coilovers! 😵‍💫
- "Boulevarde of Broken Dreams": Sierra XR4i that was embarrassingly slow 😫
- "Another One Bites the Dust": A a mint XR3i I wrapped around a lamppost when I was 19 😢

📲 Tag your mates and let’s create a Fast Ford playlist! 🙈🤣

Treat Yourself Tuesday!

Calling Mk6 Fiesta ST owners - wanna treat yourself to some more power, even sharper handling, or improved aesthetics? Why not really indulge yourself and opt for a blend of all three?

The Mk6 Fiesta ST went back to fast Ford roots of sticking a big engine in a little car; then, stiffening up the chassis, and sending it down the road for some chuckable-yet-useable fun. It really was the XR2 reincarnated in the 2000s.
And just like the much-loved XR2, tuning the ST's 2.0-litre engine gives significant improvements - either in screaming naturally-aspirated guise or gulping down wads of boost from a forced-induction conversion.

Discover how to really getthe most from this pocket rocket in our Tuning Guide. You can read if in full now over at: https://www.fastcar.co.uk/tuning-tech-guides/ford-fiesta-st-tuning-guide/

Got a Mk6 ST? What's your favourite mod? Let us know in the comments.

📸 Post your best night shots below and tell us where you captured it – bonus points for foggy lanes, neon-lit streets, or frosty backdrops! Double points for epic night time flames too!

🚗 Feature Car Friday 🚗
This week’s star is James and his Frozen White Mk2 Focus RS. But this isn’t just any RS—it’s a Stage 4 beast pushing a massive 430bhp, thanks to REVO tuning, Devil’s Own water-meth injection, and an arsenal of mods, including an Airtec intake plenum, 750cc injectors, and an Airtec Stage 2 induction kit. It also sounds as good as it looks, courtesy of a KMS Thunderstorm exhaust. Oh, and the white leather interior? Pure class!

What makes this RS even more special is how James got it: a 1-in-40,000 raffle win from 7days Performance! It’s been to countless shows, including RS National Day, and now James is planning a full restoration to factory-fresh underneath.

Got a fast Ford worthy of the spotlight? Drop us a DM or an email ([email protected]) with your pics and spec for your chance to feature next week! Don't forget to start your message with 'Feature Car Friday' so we can easily find it.

Will your car be under the spotlight next week?
