OK, some of us fellow Escort owners / AVO club members are spreading the word as far as possible to try and help the owner of this RS2000 get it back. Here is a description from him of signifcant details on the car-
The vinyl roof has slight cracks filled with paint.
The windscreen has a small 'bullseye' chip in the drivers side.
The windscreen has the original 'Dynatrol' sticker at the passenger side.
Rear 1/4 light rubber has a crack which is filled with black mastic.
All windows (except doors) have reg number etched (SHA 42N).
Leather gear knob with silver centre engraved RS2000 (that's a bit uncommon).
Round RS badge - gold on black - fixed to centre console.
The car mats are grey with light grey edging RS2000 embroided in a red inset.
RS alloys fitted with 185/70 x 13 Semperit tyres.
Spare wheel has original dunlop tyre (used).
Front and rear shocks are red 'Sachs' items.
And some pics. (The car is Daytona Yellow, despite how it looks in them!) Any info please pm and I will pass on.
