That's spot on that! Was there a mk2 2K model ever made?

No.

Minichamps have made a prototype 1/18 a few years ago but not been put into production. They do a 1/43 version in a few colours.

I don't have much patience. I did start this about 2 years ago but never did any more than prep work to the shell & nose cone.

Same with my Reiger F40 Escort mk3.
