Boreham Motorworks to reveal Ford Escort Mk1 on December 12th 2024

The team at Boreham Motorworks exist to celebrate some of the road, race and rally icons of Ford Motor Company and its important heritage. Our cars are born from passion and the Mk1 will not be EV or hybrid, it will use petrol engines and manual transmission only, because our heritage guides us, and our future insists upon it. We won’t cancel our heritage; we will evolve it. 

As the ultimate expression of the RS-lineage, the new Escort seamlessly integrates cutting-edge engineering and design with the raw driving spirit of the original Rallye Sport icons. It is the definitive successor, engineered for Peak Analogue® driving. The Ford Escort Mk1 by Boreham Motorworks is not just inspired by its predecessors; it is the One True Descendant. 

Iain Muir, DRVN Automotive Group CEO, commented: “At DRVN, we understand that true automotive passion comes from the connection between driver and machine—a relationship forged in the sound, feel, and response of a car designed to be driven. The Ford Escort Mk1 embodies this ethos, blending timeless design with performance that inspires confidence and joy. We design for the road, not the runway. We embrace everything drivers love about cars.”
