they not be bringing out the s1 for abit mate,they making mk3 xr3i's first,i speak to a bloke that sends them pics of the escorts or aranges for them to get the detail of his car,they said they not make a s1 because it will kill the sale of all the gl models.
maybe give them a year or 2

the trade fair was at the ricoh area it was by invite only
the mk is still an untapped area i think that minichamps threatened rs200 & rs 1800 are causing a problem here i was speaking to one of the guyus behind the model icon range and asked if they had though about modifing a mk2 into the rs2000 but it was judged to be cost prohibited
but mexicos and harriers seem like a no brainer i mean it not like therse much rthey would have to do to the sport worringly though there are only three escort road cars listed in the price list i got the red rs1600i and the 2 forthcomming xr3i cabrios

i suggested to the guy from model icos he take a look at this site and see how many custom s1 turbos are being done as its a missed market niot to mention the rs1700t or a phase 2 rs turbo

if you ask at the counter they tend to have a fair bit of stock out the back or in the basement, i got my kyosho rx7 and datsun 240z by asking if they had anything japanese out the back

the arctic blue mk3s are well nice, making me want another one!
decided im gonna get a mk2 though shortly, got plans
