Default Homologation build on pistonheads

Is this rare?
I thought they would be worth a lot just due to it being a Homologation one.

I could be wrong, but think this means it was one of the first 2500 cars built so Ford could go racing in them.

As these are the earliest cars, I don't think they are worth more.

I may be wrong but 93 seems a bit late for a homologation car. Didn't the first 2500 also have a non-functional water injection system with the bag in the boot or under the back seat?

I have all the water injection gear in the boot etc too, mines a 93 so I assume a lot were built and registered as and when

When I was prepping my car for concours last year I took loads of pics and this included all the pumps under the rear seats, it's in my thread somewhere in the link below as are pictures of the water injection bag as I have it out in my boot.

ford made 2500 for homologation
just how many were rhd or lhd and the various colours made i have
yet to find out.
any that were made and not registered in 92 would obviously then
make it look a 93, unless you go into build code data.

if your passionate about rally escort cosworths and appreciate
that your 1 of 2500 escort cosworth was built by ford to go international
rallying, without them ford would of been watching monte 93 instead
of rallying.
