A quick summary of the three books that feature:
- The author-signed Secret Fords Volume Two is steeped in RS tales of how the RS Escort and Fiesta were designed with two huge chapters on the Escort Cosworth and the original Focus RS. Each of the RS cars’ design stories is underpinned by separate chapters that tell the tale of how the main model – from Fiesta to Scorpio – was created.
- The Collectors’ Edition Scrapbook reveals how Ghia built one-off prototypes such as the RS2000-based off-roader. More images of the jaw-dropping GN34 Ferrari-challenging supercar are revealed.
- Past met present when Ford Design offered to reimage an ’80s RS icon for the future exclusively for the RS Special Collector’s Book – reinforcing the books specialness. It features the first-hand design stories by the Escort Cosworth and Focus RS designer and what it was like to drive the unique Cosworth-engined, Prodrive-built RS Focus prototype.
Half price – Add Volume One RS Icons ’70s & ’80s heroes companion book at checkout – how the Escort RS cars were designed, the design story of the RS wheels and details of who were the RS designers and their legacy. Unique, unmissable!

Reviews
No automotive enthusiast or for that matter, 'petrol-head' should be without these marvelous insights and reviews of 'behind the scenes' concept cars of the Ford brand. Roll on Steve's BMW by Design.....
“Secret Fords” is a riveting automotive journey, blending history, innovation and mystery of many hitherto unknown designs and prototypes. It unveils the untold tales behind Ford’s legendary designs, their development, failures and abandoned designs leaving the reader pondering ‘many what ifs’ along the way. A must-read for all car enthusiasts, design connoisseurs’ and Ford fans alike.
Over two decades of Ford history, crammed in a very nice package. A joy to read, very informative.
Having purchased all of Steve’s books this is his best to date and I’m sure BMW by Design will surpass, I keep picking up this book and never tire of it
Everything you wanted to know about Ford and then some!
A fascinating read with exceptional detail even down the RS logo designs - who knew that was a thing?
And then there are the wheels….. better still buy a copy and see for yourself .
