Further info from emails for anyone interested

The model will be released in August.
You can pre order with just £10 deposit with the remaining balance due in July
We offer free delivery to uk addresses if purchased on the website. If you register and order I can send you an invoice via PayPal for the deposit.
we will send you a reminder by PayPal so your in control.

All pre orders are guaranteed and we check each one to ensure the model is perfect.
just select pre order free shipping at the checkout.

At this point I was stuck as I couldn't see any way to pay just the deposit amount but I got this reply to my email about it.

'Please choose 'pay by cheque' or bank transfer. That will allow you to complete the order.
You can send a deposit using the above methods or I can send you an invoice via paypal, please send me your paypal email address for this.'

I sent my PayPal address and got two invoices back, one for the deposit and one for the remainder to be paid at the end of July.

As said I've pre ordered one, told knuckles and he's ordered one too

One sort if down side is there LHD and have yellow fogs, not the end of the world though lol

I look forward to getting mine, and also can't wait to see what mods people do to them, and how much the modded ones sell for in September on eBay!!

I saw these yesterday too, but thought id pay for one and not get it! but now you've pointed out a deposit option ive ordered one too!

[jayrs]

Excellent stuff Dave

[SEG1]

Do they do other colours ?

[jayrs]

I would of said no mate as they don't list any others but that's not to say in the future other colour won't be done but I can't see it, I assume they went with the most popular colour of cars sold and bases the model on that.

You could get one and reprint it to the colour you want, I've seen one of the mk2's painted in red as it looked very good, I've also seen one in black too which was alright.

Anyway as we know red is the best colour for the FRST LOL

[RS EDDIE]

How big are they ?? I see them but thought they might be tiny??

[jayrs]

1:18 scale mate


Also just to add, the web site states there a limited number of 1250 models.

I've been asked a few times so far if there only in red, again the web site only lists red so unless a different colour is done in the future then yeah only red I guess guys

[- Danny Boy -]

Looks fairly decent, the yellow fogs can probably be made clear again, it's probably a spray film.

[SEG1]

I can see jay is over the moon that they come in red!

[jayrs]

I have to admit I will prob do something with the fogs lol

I am over the moon it's red lol I would paint it if it was white

Just need to sweet talk Eddie into making up some number plates for it for me

[Dave_B]

Don't they only make the models in the best and fastest colour...

If eddies making some plates.... I'm sure there's a market! Lol

[jayrs]

Don't they only make the models in the best and fastest colour...

If eddies making some plates.... I'm sure there's a market! Lol

I think you might be right....

Yeah I thought there may be a bit of interest in plates that's why I posted here rather than pm'ing right away

[Tweek]

Amazing! Just ordered one I'd love the ERST one too but I can't afford both

[jayrs]

Know the feeling Wayne I want a mk2 xr2 but gotta start putting some money away for the focus, clutch and flywheel soon

[RS EDDIE]

Number plates.....Easy peasy!!!

[jayrs]

Number plates.....Easy peasy!!!

Good lad you have talked ya self into it

[RS EDDIE]

[Max M4X WW]

Tempted but I think I'll spend the money on the real one first!

[jayrs]

Lol I can see where ya coming from but its only £70 lol

[rsturbodaddy]

Hi just wondered the place on ebay selling these are taking deposits for them but when I ordered the escort rs turbo last month from otto models themselves it states in the terms and conditions that only 2 models per customer. Just a bit concerned for all those pre ordering with them. I think they got fed up of businesses buying them up and making too much profit.

[jayrs]

I can't see it being a problem tbh mate, the company making them will sell what ever amount another company wants to to buy.

Maybe the limit you had was due to the fact your a joe blogs rather than a registered company??

[rsturbodaddy]

Could be mate but they are £15 cheaper ordering direct who knows. Just trying to be helpfull to fellow enthusiasts.

[jayrs]

That's fair enough mate, its all good for saving money but the middle man gotta make some beans along the way lol but yeah it's cool
Mate people can order from where they want too

[rsturbodaddy]

Yeah no probs wasnt trying to sway anyone to buy direct just makes sense to me lol i dont work for either company so get nothing in return just trying to help. Looks an excellent model just a shame its the french spec with the yellow spots/fogs and lhd and missing the rs on the sticker but im sure some of the guys on here will soon sort that lol

[jayrs]

No sweat bud.

Yeah the French spec is a bit off, but then again the company that make them is French I believe so what can ya say lol

Still what ever spec, its a frat model and I been waiting for one for years so if I change bits or not I'm gunna have one so its good enough

[rsturbodaddy]

Yeah in ordering too just need to convince the other half to let me have a real one again to go with it lol got my eye on the one on ebay at jrr cars near preston just trying to twist her arm to let me go and view (sad i know)

[jayrs]

Take her for a road trip say ya going for a meal then go look at the car, do the meal on the way bk

If you have the car a slap up meal, if you don't, mc d drive through lol

[RS EDDIE]

I might invest in one, then see the look on the paint shops face when i take it in for a full respray quotation!!!!!!

[jayrs]

LOL dude if you do that you best film it!

[rsturbodaddy]

LOL I could try that Would like one of these in every colour if they did them.

[jayrs]

Funny enough I'm collecting enough of the 1:25 scale ones to do one in every colour (xr2i)

[rs_fiesta]

In the best colour too

[knuckles]

I've ordered mine

And the escort Rs turbo too

[jayrs]

Be sure to post up pics when the escort arrives dude

[KEVFRST]

Ive never seen them advertised as resin models?
I hope they are die-cast like the rest of my collection............any confirmation from someone who has got 1?
