Ford has invested heavily in the production of fast, affordable cars since the first Model T rolled off the production line. Over the past 100 years they have secured race wins and the world over, perfecting a delicate blend of power and afford ability in car design.
Fastest Fords uses achieve footage from the racetrack, the Ford factory and even classic advertisements to tell the story of these quick cars. The legendary GT40, best selling Escort, sporty Capri and family-friendly Cortina are shown in competition and tested on the open road.
Unusual models such as the supercharged transit Supervan, featuring sportcar performance are tested by guest drivers. The UK's classic Fords, such as the RS200 rally car and Escort Cosworth, go head-to-head at a test track and Mustang and Sierra are reviewed by enthusiasts.
The Le Mans 24hour race inspired the Ford team to achieve more speed and their success in long-distance racing is captured here, along with rare footage of other Ford supercars in action.
Light-hearted commentary from classic car drivers and highlights from the Duke Ford series complete this high speed trip through Ford history.
