The Sierra RS500 Cosworth is the most collectable Ford of the modern era, and its diecast versions command a matching premium on the shelf. Just 500 road cars were built to homologate the RS500 for Group A touring car racing, where it went on to dominate the World, European, British and Australian championships for three seasons. That racing pedigree translates into an enormous choice of scale liveries — Eggenberger, Ford Texaco, Rouse Sport, Trakstar, Andy Rouse's championship-winning Kaliber car, the Dick Johnson Shell cars from Bathurst, and countless others. Minichamps and Ixo dominate 1:43, while Autoart, Otto Mobile and Minichamps have produced the definitive 1:18 pieces. Live eBay listings below cover the current market, from new-in-box collector pieces to older releases and Bathurst-specific special editions. Note that RS500 diecast values have climbed sharply over the last five years — auction listings often see the strongest bidding for the rarer team liveries.
