The Mk1 and Mk2 Ford Escort in Mexico and RS guise sit at the top of most Fast Ford enthusiasts' diecast shopping lists. From the 1970 London-Mexico rally-winning original through to the RS2000 with its distinctive droop-snoot nose and the fire-breathing RS1800 that dominated rallying, these are among the most-collected British performance subjects in scale. Corgi and Dinky produced period pieces during the cars' original production runs – now increasingly collectable in their own right – while modern makers like Vanguards, Minichamps, Otto Mobile and Ixo cover the range in 1:43 and 1:18 with rally-livery variants a particular strength. The RS1600 in Ford works blue, the Roger Clark Boreham Motorsport Mk1s, and the endless Mk2 RS2000 Group 2 liveries all feature heavily. Live eBay listings below cover the current market. Auction listings often turn up the rarer variants and older-issue models that don't appear in Buy It Now.
