The team around the tuner Hoonigan Racing Division has just released a new project that obviously in collaboration with Rocket Bunny originated. A Ford Escort MK2 came into consideration as the basis. After the tuning cure that the car was allowed to endure, the 1987 Ford Escort MK2 is now much more exciting and individual than the production version and, with its 335PS and rear-wheel drive, shoots as consistently as the Hoonicorn RTR Ford Mustang in a spectacular video with Ken Block driving through the area. The video is definitely just a foretaste of what's to come. In any case, it made me curious and we will let you know as soon as we have some news. As for the changes made to the 1987 Ford Escort MK2, we have already learned the first details. As always, we have listed what we know below for you in a summary. But if you discover any other changes that we haven't listed, just use the comment box and let us know!
