The Ford Escort RS1800 Mk.II is a rally legend familiar to many motorsport fans. Prominent in the World Rally Championship between 1975 and 1979, this car won the RAC Rally five years in a row. Italeri's 1/24 kit faithfully captures that era, offering builders a compact yet accurate recreation of the Lombard RAC Rally car.
Introduced in 1975, the Escort Mk.II updated the previous model with a boxier 1970s silhouette. The RS1800 was developed specifically for rallying, with performance upgrades that made it competitive on loose surfaces. This Italeri kit mirrors those key details for hobbyists and collectors who value historical accuracy.
This kit rewards careful assembly with finely modelled bodywork and a period-correct interior. It is aimed at modellers who enjoy painting and finishing details to create an authentic display piece that evokes the rally era.
