    Not available in any road car, they were a Ford Motorsport available ratio, I have had one in my RS since 1987

    must be an acquired taste that low, i tried a 4.44 once but found even that impractical and went back to a 4.1 for road and occasional road rally use. ( 185/60 tyres and 4 speed)

    Very low indeed but I used my RS2 for hillclimbs & sprints and had a competition gearbox with a high 1st gear. I used 205/60x13 but Definitely needed the five speed box
