Today Sun Star confirmed a whole host of new announcements. You can see them all by clicking here.
There are three new 1:18 Ford Escort Mk.IIs confirmed, which are Roger Clark from Wales 1975 (SS4446), Pentti Arikkala from Finland 1976 (SS4447), and Bjorn Waldegaard from the RAC in 1976 (SS4448).
A new roadgoing Ford Escort will be the XR3i cabriolet in metallic grey (SS4991) and black (SS4992).
An interesting modern rally car subject is Kris Meeke’s Citroen Xsara WRC from the 2008 Bettega Memorial Rallysprint (SS4472).
There were also several new 1:12 models announced, including the original Morris Mini Minor in white (SS5301) and the Morris Minor Million in lilac (SS4783).
The rest of the day I was up to my eyeballs in damaged models, preparing for our Damages Day at our Guildford premises on Saturday! I’ve got more of the same in store tomorrow!
