This 1:24 plastic kit depicts the Ford Escort RS 1800 of the second Escort generation in Lombard RAC Rally trim. Built length is 167 mm, and the manufacturer classifies it as difficulty level 2.
The second-generation Escort reached the market in 1975. It retained the dependable mechanical base of its predecessor but adopted a new, sharper-edged body style in line with 1970s design trends. Alongside the more standard versions, Ford also offered the Escort Sport, while the RS 1800 competition version was added for rally use.
The RS 1800 became the key Escort competition variant in world rallying. Between 1975 and 1979, Ford won the RAC Rally five years in succession with this model, at the time the leading rally event in Great Britain and an important round of the world championship.
Recommended Italeri colours are 4605AP, 4677AP, 4678AP, 4682AP, 4695AP and 4696AP.
