Default rs2000 model car or similar gift idea - help needed please!

My boyfriend turns 30 next week and i've left his present shopping a bit late - but i've got an idea which I think he will really love and I was hoping someone on here might be able to help......

He is soon to sell his beloved Mk6 rs2000 (1996). He's had it for quite a few years, at least for the 7 years we've been together. I would like to get him a really smart model of the car or maybe even a remote control one, but i'm not sure that any exist! I've been searching all over the web and nobody has anything for the particular model/year I need.

Does anyone know if there are any models of the Mk6 Escort rs2000 (diamond white). Or is there anyone out there in his position who knows the pain he must be going through having to sell the car he wasted SORRY spent so much time money and love on, who can suggest an alternative pressie?

Really need your help asap as i'm running out of time!

Thanks

You want to see the place, awsome model shop, and the(young) lady on the burger stall is also nice!!, I only go there every sunday so my lad can get his hot dog from this stall, the things I must suffer!!

ps if they have one I will take a piccie for you and get price etc, then at least you will know the maker so it wil be easier to get, or I can buy and post ?

You are a star! - If they have one can you ask them to hold it for me and i'll go get it, we're going to Norwich for a few days next week so i'll be nearby!

Its gotta be mk6 and white - I guess that's the only info you need?

Thanks again

I went in there today, they do not have any but have had some, in white.
They are made by the manufacturer SOLIDO, they sell out quick he says!!
If in area the shop is at SNETTERTON MARKET, in the middle and open all week.
I am sorry that they did not have one but at least now you know who manufactures them!!
Sorry I could not be of more assistance, if I see one anywhere else I will let you know.
Still it's easier than trying to find a MERCURY GREY 2wd sapph at least!!

Thanks tabetha, thats really helpful as I can have another search on the web with the manufacturers name. Hadn't heard that one before, so hopefully can find some different sites now. Will let you know if I find one!

Thanks again
