Overview

Born into rallying's wildest era and extinguished just as its potential began to bloom, the Ford RS200 remains one of motorsport's most haunting ""what ifs."" Conceived for the unbridled Group B regulations of the 1980s, it was a car of contradictions-an engineering masterpiece that arrived too late to claim the glory it deserved. With a mid-mounted turbocharged engine, four-wheel drive, and a chassis of space-age design, the RS200 represented Ford's boldest departure from convention, the kind of innovation that could only come from a time when speed knew no limits. The Unfinished Legend: The Ford RS200 Story traces this remarkable machine's entire journey-from its birth in the minds of Ford's Boreham engineers, through its brief but dramatic rally career, to its resurrection in rallycross and collector circles decades later. It is a story of ingenuity, tragedy, and endurance-a car that raced for barely a year but continues to captivate enthusiasts, engineers, and dreamers around the world. Meticulously researched and vividly told, this book reveals how the RS200 became more than just a rally car. It became a symbol of human ambition at full throttle, a legend frozen in time yet forever moving in the imaginations of those who still hear the echo of its turbo whine.
