Die cast Ford Escort Cosworth 1:18 model

[macey_j2]

I've been looking for the above model for some time now, preferrably in road colours rather than race livery. All i've come across is 1/43 scale models in race colours.

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Cheers, Macey

Because collectors love them. Your best bet is to go with the 1:43's from Minichamps. There is a bigger range than the UT's and they are much cheaper.

If you want something cheaper, here's a 1/24th version:

I assume they are all New-In-Box?

Intersted in 1/18 UT 993 turbo. Please let me know once listed.

[TomsDad]

Id be interested in the 22B if you have a price?

Gents,

Didn't manage to get this sorted last night - will take some pics over the weekend and you both have first refusal on the models mentioned.

I ended up buying a UT Escort Rs Cosworth in Met Navy blue from ebay £40, in perfect condition, in box, so pleased with that (See below). I also bought an Autoart DBR9, perfect in box for £45 delivered Iv included my matisto Viper 1/18,i've had it for over 10 years now, as it was my favourite car as a kid, next to it is a 1/18 Ducati 1098s Tricolor, the best colour combo in my opinion.

Next on the hit list is a Maisto 1/18 CLK GTR in race livery, Autoart 1/18 Sierra Cosworth in blue or white, UT 1/18 Mclaren F1, 1/18 Kyosho CLK DTM cabrio in silver or white. And maybe some more after that

[TomsDad]

you got that cossie for a good price mate. looks good in blue too!
